    Sounds like that was a good ride! That akatarawa hill rd looks like fun as is paekakariki hill. Arent they 70 or 80km roads? Are you fine on a 50cc on those roads?

    I had the day free today, so I did a long scoot ride. I went from welly CBD up to Porirua, got lost in Whitby, then went over to Whitireia park reserve near Titahi bay before heading home. That, and the old stand by of touring the bays of wellington are my two long distance rides to choose from. I really wish there were a way to get to lower hut, but I'd have to be on a 100km road for a km or two, so thats out of the question.

    Now, if I could get away with following this: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&sour...7&ie=UTF8&z=16

    I could open myself up to some more roads

    Plenty of bicycles and scooters do that stretch of road every day. What's the problem?

    Bicycles are a LOT faster than mopeds!
    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.
