Has anyone travelled this road in the last couple of months?

Went down it on the 30th May. Sealed al the way. Road works between Raetihi and Pipiriki. Lose metal on some corners for the rest of the way

Mainly clearing slips. Some corners being cut back

Learning in here this was sealed all the way now - I took a tour up this way a fortnight ago.
Left the 'naki early, morning coffee in Upuk, up the river road to Pipiriki, out for lunch in 'Kune, and then back to Wanganui via the Fields Track & the Paraparas. A nice day's ride just over 500km.
Just chugging along...
What is Fields Track like - looking at maps twistybut what of the road surface?

It's sealed the whole way but you're not going to be flying along. Pretty bumpy in places but definitely a nice cruise.What is Fields Track like - looking at maps twisty

Sounds like a perfect day's ride...

A mate told me recently that it's now fully sealed. I don't mind a wee bit of gravel anyway, But I was wondering if anyone has done this recently and can say how the road is? Might just have to do it both ways (so to speak!) when we go down for Boxing Day.
Cheers in advance.
Do us all a favour, by bringing yourself up to speed, before pulling onto the motorway.
