Learner Friendly Ride. But as usual, the more experienced riders can have fun out in front.
Bring swimming gear (no nudies)..there is a pool at camp ground, but Otamure beach just over the hill is unbeatable.
Food: There is a takeaway bar/dairy attached to the campground. (I will check the open times, they may do a breakfast?)..burgers are the best ever!!!
Camp has a great outdoor dinning area complete with kitchen.
Disc lock essential, nice people in Whananaki, but access to camp is fairly open so best er on the side of caution.
I have yet to sort out a route to get there, but working on it.

Bum :( Wish I could go but I have the kids that weekend. If it had been the weekend afterwards (Easter Weekend) I'd have been there with bells on for sure!

Anyone got a spare tent I can borrow? I'll be keen but can't afford to stay at the cabin or motel rooms.

I just rang the holiday park to book, and the lady said that there is actually going to be a change of managment on the 31st of march, so booking might be a little tricky.
Just though yall should know!

Yeah her lease finishes at Easter, new management takes over, I think she wanted us in before she left, so that she gets the income, but, I wont turn out that way.

*sigh* Give them other committments your ultimate concentration or else!

Oh, just thinking, Easter.

Easter Buns :drool:

We have to have some, really! :yes:

12 months since we started our weight loss journey, I could not eat them last year, but I curtain-ly can now :yes:

I actually haven't baked anything yet in this oven. Haven't had the time or energy. If not before, Easter is certainly a good reason to start.

I won't be able to make it unfortunately.

Start of the football season means my Sundays are all taken up until next summer.

I'm sure you'll have a blast like normal :)

I also have football on the Sunday, but I am semi-considering riding up all or part of the way on the Saturday and then heading back to Auckland on the Saturday night. If you are comfortable with that sort of distance in a day then you'd be welcome to join me on the trip back.

Auckland Triathlon that weekend, so I'm out.

Round 5 of AMCC Club racing is that weekend as well, in case it clashes for anyone...

Nov' 15/16/17 is our Cape ride this year, if you can see your way clear for that...truck loads of fun!
You may need a day either side though. coming from Taupo, but you will hold the 'Furtherest to get there biker' record. :scooter:
