Year 10's @ Te Miro

3 days of greasy goodness at Te Miro Mountain Bike park. A last minute change of venue saw us change from Te Aroha (boring) to Te Miro (greasy).
Three separate days with the year 10's had plenty of sliding, crashing and jumping.

Here's how it panned out

One of the greats

We had it all, sunshine, rain, sleet, snow (lots), and WIND!

The year 11's recently embarked on our annual tramp to the Pouakai ranges off the north of Mt Taranaki (not Henry peak Josh Whitt).

The group were in good spirits especially when the snow began to puke down on day 2. Both nights in the huts saw us human traversing and there was also some humorous talk in the beds at night.

Here are some pictures of one of the best tramps from TAC so far.

Nice Pants!!

Year 12 MTBing 2013

The year 12 OED classes combined powers and went on their annual biking mission.
This year we spent a day at the Redwoods in Rotorua, before a few of us went out to Craters of the moon for some night laps on coaster.
The second day (after a night of listening to Tyler talk crap) we went back to Craters for some laps up 60km hill.
Cam had plenty of crashes, Cassie was a little slow, Tyler jumped, Karl pedalled, and Jayden flexed.

Here's the edit

Junior Climbing evening

Sorry the blog updates have been a little thin. Mr Oliver's been having different kinds of adventures, still including sleepless nights smelly children.

We recently had our first ever Junior Only rock evening. We had 40 students climbing in both the clip and climb area and on the rock climbing area. Most students climbed hard and most students also had plenty of fast food.

Heres a few pics of the night
