As Dave has pointed out we're in Napier for the night at a sweet motel after a day of absolutely wicked riding. Motel has unlimited wireless for $5 hence all our posts.

And yes, you read Flip's post correctly, I managed to break down on a Honda four stroke. Chain broke and went flying. Woohoo.

Anyway a very, very long story short, a chain was eventually procured and we all met Tom in Wellington at 2 30.

Has been a wicked ride so far, the Rimutakas are the best road I have ever ridden. Absolutely incredible. Lots more great roads along the way too.
