    Hey Kiwifruit, that road turns into Fairy Springs Rd. and on Fairy Springs there's a BP Express across from a Challenge Servo. I'll be there at 7.15.

    Ok, who from Auckland is going and if so I take it we are meeting at the Shell Service station at Clevedon at 8.30 am to depart at 8.45am.

    Then we meet the rest of the bunch at Kopu Service station, do the Coro anti clockwise but head back the same way from Coro through Whitianga again, right??

    Should be ok to make and might be able to get some more together as well.

    Cool,

    I am assuming that the roadworks between Kopu and Hikuia will now be sealed and loose gravel everywhere. Can't avoid that but heading up to Coro on the East side through Coroglen is anticlockwise and IMHO the better way to go, which is what you are doing

    The West Coast from Coromandel to Thames has some nice twisities BUT has a lot of areas of new seal in patches which just happen to be in the best bits and right in your riding line. So best avoid that side of the Coro and just head back the same way through Coroglen after lunch at Coro.
    That's the best part anyway aye?

    The group from South can head back through Whangamata if you want while us Aucklanders can head back through Kopu

    Just got some fresh rubber. So I plan to be in for the ride. I might overnight it in Coramandel or thereabouts on Sat night to break the ride up a bit.

    Yes,

    Aucklanders meet at Shell Service Station, Clevedon at 8.30am departing 8.45am to ensure early arrival at Kopu service station in order to meet the rest departing Kopu at 10.15am.

    If you happen to miss the Clevedon rendevous, then make sure you are at Kopu service station at 10.00am or no later than 10.15 am.
