Follow SH2 up to Upper Hutt. Keep going til Featherston, then turn around & do the hill again. :msn-wink:


Repeat until no longer necessary.

Repeat until no longer necessary. Nah keep going to masterton, hook a left to pahiatua left again and follow till you get lost ! Nah then back down to Peakok hill and over haywards then repeat till no longer necessary !
Time on my hands sorta but just threw my shoulder out (i'm old you see) so prolly wouldn't handle a ride for a few days !
Edit : what AJ said !

I think I'll just end up potzing about the Hutts tonight. So if anyone sees a black Triple being ridden by someone with a black/blue Quasi jacket, wave or better yet stop me. :)

In that case - look up Wainui Coast Road. Its not bad. Or cruise out to Eastbourne.

Or, do a loop of Grey's Road Pauahatanui and the Whitby Inlet.

Truth be told I'm only here until 8:10pm (the time of my flight) tomorrow and I need to have the bike returned by 6:00pm. So the chances of any sort of meaningful ride are slim to none but I'll to make the best of the time I have left. :)
