    That was an awesome ride, would have been cool to have had a small group out, some beautiful roads and corners, a little mossy though... maybe another time!

    When the weather fines up for long enough periods, might take the leaners ride through there. Will need a new leader though...

    Yep I'm blessed with the roads out there. I'm right inbetween Kawakawa Bay and Clevedon, so stones throw to go through the Hunuas or down through Orere Point/Kaiaua. Some of the corners are rather interesting, especially the ones which tighten themselves up so suddenly

    Did it Monday.

    Rode from Howick through to Kaiaua and back on Monday morning. Some dry roads, especially on the way back, but that twisty stretch out of Kawakawa was wet and diabolical. Tightening corners, moss on the road, bad surface.... it's got it all. What a great way to bed in the new Sport Demons though.

    I could be a starter for the next noob ride.
