Riding the Heaphy Track with a recumbent trike

Riding the Heaphy Track with a recumbent trike Tube. Duration : 7.58 Mins.


My recumbent is not the most suitable vehicle to ride on the track but that is what I had with me and since there were not many people I decided to see how far I can ride. I just did the short loop track and noticed after that the track was too narrow. Having slick tires did not help either! So I had to push with my hands on wheels for additional all wheel driving traction. In 1992 I did the whole track with my mountain bike on two days but now as Heaphy Track is part of Kahurangi National Park, legally you are not allowed to ride a mountain bike on the trail.
