    According to that link, it shows a cold front sitting right over the Coromandel at noon tomorrow

    May come along, but if this map is correct, then it could be a little "damp"
    I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure...

    Work out how far it is from Hamilton to Kopu.

    The loop from Kopu to Kopu is under 200kms. Well worth it.

    Does the "coro" loop include Whangamata -> Waihi -> Paeroa? That's the best bit IMHO. I'll be there regardless of the weather

    Ride Report

    Did a belated ride up to just north of Tairua, left at 1.30 from Thomas BP. Wet's were put-on at Kopu but hardly needed.
    On return trip even more dry roads. Managed to get back to Hams around 6ish
