    Thinking about maybe doing this on Sunday as going south is chilly

    https://www.google.co.nz/maps/dir/Bo...-36.964225!3e0


    or given that this is a Waikato Forum how about this?

    https://www.google.co.nz/maps/dir/Bo...-36.964225!3e0


    If anybody is interested in joining me on either route PM me and I will send you my mobile....planning on an early start but I am pretty relaxed about how the day might unfold and I will wing the route onthe day- assuming I have a say:-)

    If I had my wheel back....

    If I were you, and you go South jump off 27 and go over the Oheniwhai / Matahuru rd.

    Have a good one

    My weapon of choice for the day will be
     photo Pictures003_zps5a999594.jpg

    This should allow me to fend off the Red Aprillia Tuono (in truth we will be running the pace of a fast Harley also travelling with us)
    Leave 25 Arrenway Dr Albany at 1pm tomorrow if your interested, will be a good semi relaxing ride with Woodcocks road tight bends to add some fun and fish and chips at one of NZ's bests at Leigh

    Hi,

    didn't see you guys. Met a guy on a KTM 690 and in the back of Mangawai and rode back with him via Puhoi. Went through Leigh about 2pm.

    Did just a tick under 500 kms
