Trail Notes - Video

Dec 14, 2011 at 11:14
by Nick Stevenson  

Trail Notes is a collection of stories capturing the lifestyles of passionate mountainbikers from the Southern Hemisphere Mecca of Rotorua, New Zealand and the infamous trails of the Whakarewarewa forest. The film follows four unique individuals and showcases their stories of how mountainbiking captivated their lives and what has drawn them to the sport and the intoxicating location of the forest. Each of these interconnected stories creates a tapestry of the local scene that mimics the winding trails. These stories of personal battles, commitment and passion to the sport of mountainbiking, illustrate both the individual and collective culture that these trails breed.

 Gosh, I used to ride these trails so much with my mates, being a born kiwi coming down from Auckland and staying in the van, sleeping in it, and then in the day having a blast in the forest with our dodgy shuttle bus. Unfortunately I moved to Amsterdam about a year ago. But I remember just having the most amazing time in my mountain biking journey ever, truly a special place. Respect for the crew who are filming, Respect for the beautiful trails and respect for all the kiwi's back home going hard at the trails I will never forget.
