Best Way for bikes / speed is the one in the Motorcycle Map thing...

Go out to Hunua down to Hotel du Vin. Along the Mangatawhiri highway of suicide and then nip off at the Miranda turn. Head along until you get to Waitakaruru. Then go along the the thames flats to Kopu. Then go along the bottom route after the bridge.

Or PM me and come down with me tonight (Still on my little SRV250)

Biggest issue really is it's just that time of year in that area, there's gonna be traffic everywhere, just have to deal with it, you'll get some spots you can give it the berries here and there, but watch for the whole flying through the ol 45k corner at $%^kph only to find a campervan doing 10kph, :spudwow: although it livend things up a wee bit.
