OK, after much discussion and general arsing about, here is the plan for those that wish to join us.

Meeting at Papakura Autobahn at 12
Quick lunch, leaving at 12:30 - 1 at the latest

Travel down the back roads via TeAwamutu (refueling stop)

This will be a reasonably quick paced group, sorry no L plate riders

So far we have

Myself ArcherWC

Pumba (for part of the trip)
Kittyhawk
CB1300 (with pillion)
Arven
Aro

It would have been good to carry on the whole way with you guys instead of bailing before hamilton (I cant spell nargawakaia). Good ride to that point though

Excellent ride down and a great day in Taupo. Thanks for the company back to Auckland Arven. I'll flick you a text next time we're heading out. Need to get the Busa fixed first.

Yeah we went quickish up SH1 then turned off at Tirau and went up that way. We left Taupo at about 4.30, and i walked in the door with food at about 8. ( i think it was 8?) So 3.5 hours. Not too bad.

Almost ran out of gas tho! Luckily the gassy was open! :)

Stopped at Tokoroa, Cambridge, then Huntly. By the time we got to Huntly, I could hardly hold my bike up when we gassed up lol! A no dose tablet and heaps of red bull, saw me home lol.
