Looking at heading to Middlemarch rally this Friday Via Danseys pass/ Kyeburn/Paerau/Clarks Juntion. Been quite a bit of rain in the area over past few days. Can anyone tell me what the road/Track is like between Paurau/Clarks Juntion.
Any fuel stops that you know of. Thanks in advance!

If it's Dunstan Trail you mean, it's a great ride. But after heavy rain it might depend on what tyres you are running.
Fuel at Ranfurly.

May still be a bit greasy, weather looking slightly dodgy at this stage.

Just take your time on the clay sections and you will be sweet, prolly not much to look at in shite weather tho.

I run E07 rear and TKC 80 front on my DR650, I have had more probs on the ice than in that clay.

Just do it, the adventure really starts when the wheels fall off your plan anyway :laugh:
