When I decide where to go next..
Anything at Port Waikato?...aint been there yet.

I've just got back from an extended weekend there with some geology students.

There's a small settlement and camp ground etc but it's mostly known as a big source of fossils from the late Jurassic period. However, the human skeleton found on the beach there is big news at the moment.

what are the roads like?

I've only gone there via Huntly, Pokeno or Bombay and the road is sealed all the way. The road leading south from Port Waikato is gravel though.

From a ride rating aspect, it's not that "interesting" going from either Pokeno or Bombay (but still good) but from Huntly via Glen Murray, it's much better.

but from Huntly via Glen Murray, it's much better.

Thats highway 22.

Yeah, my problem is that if we are to ride south of here, its an hour on the M/Way which is ok if you ride a Lazy-e-Boy but damn is it boring?
We normally only go that way if we are on a mission.
You will find that 9/10 rides that I/we do are in a northern direction, much better playground.
I have an idea for the next ride, and its not to Port Waikato.
Its a Coast to Coast ride where SH1 will only be used for about 200 mts..
