Auckland to BOI, best route?

[ahamay]

Morning. Quick question.
Going for a bit of a run up to Keri this weekend,:whocares: and thinking about turning at Brynderwyn, through Dargaville, Opononi, Kaikohe.
Has anyone travelled this road recently?, ie condition etc.

cheers

It was about 2 months ago, but the road was in good order. Looks like you'll have a dry weekend which certainly increases the fun level up through the forest.
We came back down through the middle - Twin bridges, Waiotira etc - that's a really good ride in the dry too.

6 weeks ago all was good.

Went up through Waipoua and down Twin Bridges. Some roadworks - nothing hectic. Been a bit of rain since then though.

Last time i went from dargaville up to kaikohe and to keri the road was good.
I know that twin bridges had a lot of flooding with all that rain but i think the road is still good, no major slips or anything i heard of.

If you decide to go up sh1 there's a couple of stretches of roadworks south of whangarei, came through last night....
