Don't follow too close, I will do skids haha (I foresee myself dropping it which would be a bit of a laugh for everyone

)

Always a first for anything I guess. You will have to try really hard to lose control on this road, if you want to know another one that is more up your alley, I dont mind stopping and waiting while you explore it

If there's room, I'd be super keen on coming along. Northland was the first place I ever went in NZ, and it's by far my favorite place

My Fiance' rather enjoyed scaring the shit out of me on the dirt road out to cape reinga

.

So if there's room, sign me up please

There is room...the road to the cape is all sealed now.
We are doing a different day ride on the Saturday this year...Ahipara/Herekino/Kohukohu loop.
Maybe go back to the Cape next year.
Post 1-2 have the deatails.

Been ages since I did the Herekino road. For a good reason. I came over a wee crest to be confronted by a mob of angry, staunch turkeys. Caused a bit of rectal puckering.

Beware the avian boulders...

It may pay to pack a bit of sage & onion stuffing just in case......

I spose I had better make it official and actually ask to be added to the list of attendees please ... rather than just assuming and turning up :-)

Cheers

Got the Friday off work (which helps a bit haha).

On a side note went down SH22 in the weekend and didn't end up going to Port Waikato

**Grant`** · 24th September 2012, 20:44

At this point not quite sure what the go is as there is a track day on the 17th... So will confirm or decline closer to the time although I might just come and ride the Mangamukas anyway as I never got around to doing it prior to moving.

Someone else was done that way also, bit of damage done but, things can be fixed...

i hear track days are regular events? while this is an yearly thing? What do you have to see about that? You are one funney bloke sometimes....really your priorities are strange and hard to understand.
