The cost of their insurance scheme is competitive and you don't have to fight for every cent should have to make a claim. Hey Pritch thanks for that, that's a big help, I am certainly interested in joining that so will deffo follow it up. Sounds like the fifty bucks is worth it alone for the breakdown service. Thanks again. Cheers. Chaos.

Liked the logical remark. Cheers. Chaos.

You have barely scratched the surface.....many more good roads to come.
Thanks Dutchee, was a blast of a day !
The Puhoi pub does some decent meals. In Wellsford, the pub opposite the service station (before SH1) does good pizza and the coffee's aren't too bad (especially when it's crap outside). Sounds like you picked some decent roads, there are more out there for you to find
