Hit the road about 10am, headed south. God those roadworks round Rangiriri, Mercer are the bloody PITS! 30 bloody K where they're putting the new cheese cutters in, bone dry road, not a worker in sight, could they not spend 10 minutes on friday afternoon at least putting the limit up to 80????
Turned off at Taupiri, gotta love 1B!!!!!
Stopped just south of Cambridge for a cuppa with friends, then headed back. Anyone else ridden over French Pass Rd? What a blast! Runs between Whitehall and Cambridge, lots of nice corners and few good straights as well.
Back up 1B, then through the bloody roadwork to Mercer. Turned off at Mercer, across to Pukekawa and back to Puke up 22. Great ride apart from aforementioned road works, dry road nearly all the way, some cars moved over to let me get past in one or two places, and no bastard made any serious attempt to kill me.
