The extra bonus is that we get the monday off work this year so you can have a day at home to recover

Day one will consist of a total of 390 kms to finish in Taumarunui for the night at the Taumarunui Holiday Park 0800 473 281 or http://taumarunuiholidaypark.co.nz/
Lunch stops can be at either Oparau or Pio Pio.
Maximum distances betwen fuel stops of 145 kms, so no big fuel tanks needed.

Sunday we will leave from Taumarunui at 9.00 am to take the back roads out to fishers track.
Lunch at National park before going through the 42nd Traverse and we should be all finished by 2.00pm at the latest to give everyone time to get home before dark.

Do you have a starting place yet Mark?

**MXNUT** · 30th March 2015, 08:52

Hi Guys, starting time and place will be the same as previous years. It will just be the route to get to Taumarunui that is different.

10.00 am from Otorohanga.

Will post up the rest of the details when I get my act together after easter.

**MXNUT** · 10th April 2015, 10:30

The details have been finalized along with the new Saturday ride route. See updated 1st post or the Calendar.

I will be doing a pre ride of part of the route this sunday.

All we need now is the weather to play its part.

Looks like it will be a small but enthusiastic group for this one.

Weather looks to be holding up well though, shouldnt be too much of a dust problem with 5-6 riders.
