fwiw, www.ridewithgps.com is great for mapping routes.. bit easier than google maps

**JafaSaffer** · 24th October 2012, 11:56

Choice mate, thanks for that

Ill update and repost later.

no worries.. another one is mapmyride, but ridewithgps is tailored to bicycle/motorcycle

An option could be to meet up with this group in Paeroa

we could then join them for the loop and finish the rest of the above loop

Weather looks bad for Sunday. Saturday certainly seems the best weather wise..

**JafaSaffer** · 26th October 2012, 07:37

Yes, not looking too promising. I work on Saturdays so cannot ride then.

Hopefully weather is good for sunday

oh yeh !

How about on the way back we come down koheroa road?
Have driven it a few times into mercer when traffic has been crap after Maramarua and looks like it would be good on a bike.

I'm not fussy.. think I may have been down that way a few years back on the K9
