Bombing range ride

So I'm pretty new to riding and am told there's a nice beginners dirt /off road ride out near the army bombing range in South head, near Auckland, New Zealand. I am further told that if there's a red flag at the gate and the gate is shut, then the army are bombing and you cannot enter - seems clear so far....

So I get there and the gate is open and even has an "open" sign on it ......... but there's also a red flag ???? - they probably forgot to remove the flag......... Seemed like a good idea at the time to continue on

So I have a great ride around the place and find a nice spot for lunch by an inlet .......



I'm just ready to head off after lunch when an explosion rocks my little world to the extent that I felt my lungs compressing, once I stopped shaking I took the following video (click on image and excuse the french).




Safe to say that just the red flag alone means they are using the range

Agreed, here's my submission...

Might not seem like it, but this was a very bad idea. Got my bike stuck on these train tracks and COULD NOT get off of them. I couldn't jump the rails nor find an exit. Shortly after this photo I went down the tracks a bit and the soft dirt meant I couldn't place the bike on it's kick stand without it falling over. I was stuck like a muther effer. It sounds silly, but it was a seriously bad idea .
