    Thats this coming Sunday I gather.

    I may be able to make it and have been planning to do a loop for a while waiting on the weather to come right.

    Weestromer and another guy in Rotorua now have GSX1400's too and I was hoping to T up a ride with them in the next few weeks.

    This Sunday would be okay I suppose but the weather forecast is shite.

    Have the house on the market with open homes and crap, so getting out is tough right now.

    Will see how things pan out but would love to come. My favourite run, the Coro Loop.
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    Come on - you'll need someone to wait for at intersections

    If it is fine I will be there

    A stretch of road named SH25 that links Kopu, Coromandle and a few other towns with long names I can't spell.

    It has a lovely stretch of twisties, straights and sweepers with absolutely breathtaking scenery.

    The road condition is lovely and there are plenty of gas and food stops along the way so you can make your engine scream without fear of running out of gas or energy.

    It's easily one of my favorite rides - check out the pics, you will understand why some of us love those roads.

    Cathedral Cove is a bit of a hike off the path mate!

    And you missed all the good bits, like the hill out of tairua and coromandel et al

    Just pics I found on the net.

    On most of my rides, I don't even notice there's a view until I stop - and I hate stopping on a ride.

    Coro Ride.

    Damm,

    Gotta go to Auckland to shift my daughter, Sat and Sunday. If the ride doesn't happen and its postponed I'd be a starter. If it does go ahead have a good safe ride.

    Cheers.
