I hadn't been out for a while, what with Xmas and and all. So when I found I had some time this afternoon, I just had to get out for a ride.:scooter:
Because of the time available and the "need" for some gravel roads, the Klondyke road seemed the best option. I had always gone from the Onewhero side towards Port Waikato so after going that way there, I decided to go the reverse on the way back, including Daff road which has some spectacular views.:clap:
Overall around 150km's
Nice ride, nice weather.:sunny:

The last farm down Klondyke Rd, before the junction to Port Waikato Rd. You have to ride it slowly, paricularly if the occupiers are outside....Ask Taz...:) We did have a few issues going through there. I have done it a few times since and a wave helps but you still get daggers back....:shit: It isn't a road you can ride fast anyway, but I think the dust creates a bit of a nuisance for them..
Looked like a great day for it...
