Nice day for a ride to Kaiaua
Mataharu/Ohinewhi Road had just been graded to a pretty nasty camber which made for a more cautious ride over the Hapuakohe Range.
Came across a MX day on Coxhead Rd in a recently cut Maize paddock. Stopped for a quick look, thought about doing a lap but the Shinko 700 isn't really designed for that + im a stingy bugger and didnt want to let go of some coin (basicly just scared)
On to the East Coast Rd aka birdwatching coast? everyone needs a hobby I guess. After buzzing around the motorhomes and scaring of the birds I stoped for a photo op:
Stoped at the pub in Kaiaua for a well earnt drink, alot of cool bikes there today. I dont usually have a beer if I'm riding but the day asked for it.
Went up into the Hunua Ranges to one of the reservoirs, was a nice metal road that deserves steering with the rear, disappointed to find the gate locked past the reservoir; was looking forward for alot of fun in there. Always locked?
Im proud of the little WRR it just takes the abuse and smiles.
