Heaps of people ride the Coromandel Loop.

Most of the guys in Auckland, Rotorua and Tauranga are Coro loop sluts like me :)

Why do you ask?

No serious............Living Channel?

I watched Coro when I was a kid and things haven't changed much since then except some of the actors are long dead and the rest got old :)


Yeah, ZRXER, where are you mate?

[Grahameeboy]

Seriously for me the best part of Coro is the Thames - Coro Town bit followed by breakfast.

[beyond]

My best bit which I could do all day long is from Whitianga to Coro town and especially the smooth seal bit over the hill with all the twisties. :love:

Gulp, I can remember when Ken Barlow was a pimply faced teenager..!

Same mate. Frightening isn't it?

just want to meet riders not coffee drinkers , thats why i asked
e mail me next time doing loop and will try to meet any at tapo (1/2 way along thames coast)9 out of the 50km zone)

[beyond]

Fair enough. I like riding and not sucking coffee all the time too :)

Keep an eye out on this site under planned events as they are always on.

Trouble is most people like the East coast and head up that way and then back again the same way but often do the full loop as well.

Anyways, watch the planned rides under meetings and events and a lot of times people meet at the Kopu gas station. Auckland crew normally meet anyone from Tauranga, Rotorua, Paeroa there.

There hasn't been a full organised loop since the unfortunate events of 2nd December but I may tentatively organise one before winter hits hard.

Most people are a little hesitant to organise large group rides since that bad day, myself included. It's a good way to meet others but has the potential to go wrong.

I'll put you on my buddy list, next time a group of us head out around the legendary Coro we'll let you know.
Are you a hard out rider or just in for a cruise?

Well if he's a tad bent he could join your club, all he needs is pink wheels and a pink fluffy seat warmer :shutup:

[Rotor]

Been away for a week

Don't have that much of a attitude only on thing that I like - RIDING NOT TALKING
I'll just watch the calendar for you city boys to go for a ride on the Coromandels

[beyond]

Yep, keep an eye on the Meetings and events postings. I see there's one posted for this Saturday but doesn't look like the full loop and from Hamilton.

Boys and girls

[HDTboy]

Had a good play up there today. Saw Korn, Kiwifruit, and Saul all shitting bricks going through the corners upright. Had a bite and a drink at the coroglen with about 20 guys from Kiwibiker, then went back the other way.

Didn't see any Busses though

[Rotor]

I've seen 2 (Bussa's) but was in my car. I don't care what bike you ride as long as you ride

[HDTboy]

I'm of the same opinion, was just taking a dig mate

[Swoop]

I watched Coro when I was a kid and things haven't changed much since then except some of the actors are long dead and the rest got old
Shame they all didn't get dead. Crap tv viewing that should be consigned to the midnight hour so the retards who watch that shit have to learn how to set their vcr timers.

Coromandel. Not enough multi-lane motorways with straight passing lanes.

[Rotor]

[Harry the Barstard]

[Rotor]

[smoky]

The Coro to whiti is cool all right but my favorite part is the road between Whangamata and Waihi, do you normaly go over the Kopu or right around thru Waihi ?
