Canterbury's best kept secret, Trail Dogs, and digging as the second best therapy to riding - Catching up with Andy Keenan from Bike Methven
The Mt Hutt MTB trails are just out of Methven, which is smack bang in the middle of the South Island. Andy has been involved in the club out there since the early 2000's and is in charge of the trial maintenance. Not only is he a passionate digger but he rips on a bike too and is all about community! In this episode, I talk to Andy about how mountain biking in Methven started and how it has developed as a key asset for the community, a little about bikes and set-up, and our trail dogs.
At New Zealand Mountain Biking, we run epic mountain biking tours across the scenic North Island, New Zealand. We also help riders build confidence and skills in our MTB and eMTB private lessons on the legendary Rotorua trails.
