Steelhorse

We have recently moved to the Pureora Forest park and last weekend got the last of the holes in my 1986 GPZ600 petrol tank fixed so went for a ride to get some milk. 160kms later I was in a great mood that set me up all week. I headed off to Mangkino, aimed for Te Awamutu saw a sign post for Otorahonga. This took me to a T intersection so I choose to go to Ngaroma 'cause I had never been there. The ride from Mango to te Awamutu is really scenic and a good ride the turn off to Oto is still a good ride but going from the Ngaroma back to Mango is just fantastic. This day it was empty and hot, mix of blind corners and being able to see a line of corners ahead, reasonably good seal, a very narrow back country road with th longest straight being about 500m. I had a ball staying up about 6 grand and really worked the edges of the tyres. It was not a taxing ride but just heaps of fun. Next weekend I am off to do it in reverse. I hope to list more king country and volcanic platue rides as I find them. And next time with road names too.
