Try the Ground Effect website. They have the Kennett brothers books on NZ mountain biking:

www.vorb.co.nz is a good place to ask for anything cycling related in NZ

There is certainly riding at Rotorua but that is a good few hours drive. saw some signs along the Hutt river just north of Taupo, Lots of moor and mountain type land near Wakapapa to the south of Taupo. However i get the impression that access in NZ isn't that good compared to the UK. There are footpaths but didn't see much in the way of mtb tracks.
