Road trip anyone?

[quattro]

Finally got my bike bought, serviced, rego'd, insured, blah blah blah. Looks like the weather's starting to clear too and I think I can FINALLY come up with some sort of plan for a decent road trip. To be honest, I've never really overnighted on a bike and I have a degree of trepidation about setting out on my own as a novice tourer.

Ideally, if anyone in Kiwibikerland was planning a trip or knew of anyone that might recruit a deckhand for their trip, it would be great. Even if anyone was interested in tying up for a few days here and there, the company would be great. I'm easy breezy and willing to travel to co-ordinate but currently in Auckland.

TBH I'm hoping to get sorted with something a little more substancial but by all means, I'd love to tag along if I'm still at a loose end at that stage.
