Haha, and to think when I grew up in Arapuni I thought Putararu was a scary big city!!!
I don't think it's so big anymore.....but it IS still scary.........

Sounds like a good stop on the way back from a ride, or a destination from Tga. If entering Putararu from Tauranga end, where in town is it? Cheers

Cheers for that! Nearly bought a house there many years ago! I'll make note to call in when I'm next passing through.

Sounds like a potential ride destination for us Hammy fellas

Found it! It's about halfway between Hamilton and Rotorua.

Sounds good. Another motorcycle friendly bar in the backblocks of the Waikato. Will stop in on my way to Okoririe this weekend

An alternative route to Sheep Highway 1 from Auckland is to go down through Whatawhata, Kihikihi, Arapuni to Putaruru. Much more interesting road and significantly less traffic/HP

From Hamilton/Cambridge just head down Maungatautari Rd, cross over at Arapuni dam and head for Putaruru.
