I am planning to head down to join MarkS' organised ride of the 42nd/Fishers tracks. Planning to leave Auckland City early (read 9amish) on the friday and take the very not main road down, even covering a chunk of the Kawhia/Raglan ride Something like this google maps link Will be slow paced, plenty of rest stops to check out the views. Will most probably get lost a few times. Plenty of options to bail out to short-cuts/main roads if things are taking longer than expected. Plan to stay at the pub at Owhango on friday night. Joining the group Saturday 9am at National Park for the Fishers/42nd traverse tracks. I then plan to see how I feel with heading back up, might stay somewhere local, even maybe the Owhango hotel again, or make my way back up to visit relatives near Hamilton. Anyone keen to join me?
