Because the holiday falls early this year, chances are the weather might be warmer. And that will encourage a lot of motorcycle riders to get out and about.
Brittany Morrow talks about the motorcycle crash that changed her life. Dressed only in basic streetwear, the 20-year-old fell off the back of a ‘bike travelling at 120mph and was partially skinned alive. Brittany speaks eloquently about what happened that day, the aftermath and how she now champions wearing the right protective gear on every ride. Watch it, and please pass on the message to anyone you know who rides. And encourage them to take Ride Forever coaching.

Charming flower beds and newly planted gardens are woven throughout the course and grounds.
When I took over 3 years ago, the place had definitely seen better days. With a lot of hard work I've transformed it into a fun and entertaining family day out. Our aim right from the start was to create a low cost, relaxing and fun atmosphere. If our online reviews are anything to go by, we think we're well on the way!
Relax in the BBQ picnic area with a packed lunch, or book the area for a kid's party, for free! Open 7 days a week throughout the summer; available for private functions and after hours parties by request. How about unlimited mini golf, music to bop along to and a yummy BBQ or pizza afterwards for your next after work event?
If you can handle a bit more excitement we have recently added a minicars track for 2-6-year-olds on the weekends. The electric cars are self-drive and remote control, so parents can join in too! Additional plans for this year include renovating the pond and installing a water feature, along with some additional lighting for night golf in autumn.
We have ample free parking and the lowest prices in town. Please come along and experience our enchanting little course before everyone finds out! Open every day from 10am (weather dependent). Check out www.enchantedforest.nz for photos, prices and last entry times.
