FMC recently wrote in support of a proposal by Tasman District Council to redesignate part of the Rameka Pack Track from roadway to track allowable only for cyclists and pedestrians. Project Rameka is an excellent and generous initiative led by Wellington cyclists Jonathan Kennett and Bronwyn Wall which is creating a fantastic recreational opportunity, with a conservation bent, for the people of Golden Bay. Ride the Rameka Track down to Project Rameka and Takaka next time you are over that way.
