You can enter by going to www . obop . org . nz. Entries close Saturday 5th November. Free pizza at the finish!   rob.g Posted: 27 October 2011, 4:12 AM   One of the highlights of the year for me. A really well run event in one of the best forests in NZ, and a pile of pizza when you really need it. See you there   sifter Posted: 30 October 2011, 12:13 PM   Simon and I are really looking forward to this too. I wrote a bit of a blog after the event last time: http://sifter-writes-bikes.blogspot.com/2010/11/great-great-forest-rogaine.html Hopefully that inspires some of you to sign up!   DennisdM Posted: 7 November 2011, 1:35 AM   Entries still open till race day now. Check out the website if you're still keen. www.obop.org.nz The numbers are looking good, and the trails are in great condition. I rode some new ones while putting out controls on Saturday. Nice write up Sifter.   onemanfanclub Posted: 10 November 2011, 3:50 AM   Did have other plans for the weekend, but now postponed, so now I'm kinda keen to enter. Is there anyone out there who'd like to pair up with a VERY unfit Nic for a VERY cruisy (as in mostly walking probably) 3 hours on foot? nic_gorman at yahoo dot com dot au   darren Posted: 16 November 2011, 3:31 AM   A bit of coverage on the RotoruaTV City News.

Bring on next year.
