    We use to do an annual Muriwai to Mangawhai group ride some years ago, the good thing about that was, from coast to coast you only had to be on SH1 for about 200 mts at Wellsford. The Mangawhai Tavern always had great food.

    dont be such a bunch of pansies. Go as fast as you can, on the back wheel while giving the finger to "the man"... or "the woman", whatever floats your boat. Speed limits are for weak minded idiots, ALWAYs try and outrun the filth. Registration and warrants of fitness are theft and should not be encouraged.

    Hope this helps.

    Well, yes, you make a good point but the OP is only in his 30's. Too young to be a bad ass and I bet the kids are still at home.

    Yep the kids must still be at home, for if I read right the run out to Muriwai was an overnighter...

    Good spotting Sherlock. I reckon my riding observation still stands but my profiling sucks. Such is life

    Funnily enough most of my greatest hits happened in Scotland. I'm still kept up to date with lap times on "certain roads" by me old mates. K'in eejits.
