Anyone else hate SH2 from Wellington to the Hutt?

[Hopeful Bastard]

The stretch of road is quite possibly, the most, unenjoyable piece of asphalt ever laid by a polynesian road worker in this hemisphere.

I think you have sh2 and sh1 through Pukerua bay mixed up somewhere along the way...

Around Welly is an Oasis of riding pleasure in a desert of boring roads.

I litterally live at one end of State highway 2 and work at the other. I don't really mind it at all. The bit that really gives me the shits though is the moonshine bridge and the cheese cutter just north of it.

I wouldn't mind if the whole lot was like the Western Waikato, Fiordland, Buller, Arthur's.....oh....

I know what your talking about, and those groves carved into the road to give more grip in the wet also give me the shits. They must be there to channel the blood off the cheese cutting board.

The bit of SH2 I'm specifically talking about is the section along the coast line where there's just no alternative route. The section north of the coast you could go into the valley to take anther route just for shits and giggles, so you don't feel so trapped on the other sections.
