Thanks Lee, I am allergic to Gravel. Would you be able to advice if i am going to sneeze? thanks.

if you like - we just give you the places to go to how you get there is up to you
but personally I would learn to ride the gravel so short cuts are an option.
The more you dislike the stuff the more it freaks you out. Learning to ride gravel opens up NZ like you wouldnt belive, you dont know what you are missing.
There are always raodworks or course which can crop up anywhere.

Will take me an hour ta get there from home. It will be a 5am wake-up call for me an on the bike (packed and last min checks done Sunday) by 5:30am. Be whizzing through Kaikohe by 6am and then waiting for the first Opua Ferry which is 6:50am. It's then a mad dash to the Pole

Will be close, but I don't pick-up the sleeping bag until Mon night in Tauranga and can not be bothered to pay for Accommodation being so close to the start.
See ya there,

Doug
