    Welcome aboard, nice bike choice, you're a bit far away for me though.
    The views expressed above may not match yours - But that's the reason my Dad went to war - wasn't it?
    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, .... but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out,... shouting "man, what a ride"!!!

    Welcome to the site..
    Is that gravel / dirt only riding ? Always a great ride out to Kawhia or TeAnga. What do you you have in mind ?

    DR650 it Rocks

    I'm in ,just need a days notice to change my wheels over from motard to dirt.Got a new set of Pirelli MT21 Rallycross to scrub in ,so I'm hanging out
    Hey Motu you'd be into this eh!
    Come to think of it the Auckland area could do with an Adventure riders club,there seems to be loads of folk doing it ,we all have our own favorite places to ride lets share the fun around ,

    Yeah,we could do Te Anga/Marokopa/Awakino,then come back on that road above the gorge,and back to Te Anga at Pio Pio.I know Stu is keen to do some in that area.Maybe a summer plan.....

    Just been from Te Kuiti to marakopa to Awakino and back today, only about 12km of this road is left unsealed. bloody nice though, just watch out for rollers/graders/big rock trucks. interesting to note that from tk to awakino is 130km so even my crap fuel range will reach.
    The real mystery is how come that fat bastard Hurley has never lost any weight.

    That's a bit sad....to think there used to be signs warning not to use the road,and it was often closed.Still a good ride though.....

    Oh dear.
    Just to note, there is a 20km strech of gravel road that starts about 2km north of awakino and heads over the hills to meet up with the main road again north of the gorge. The view from the top is spectacular.

    Can't see that too many people would be interested in duel riding-do you use pistols at ten paces or is it more like jousting?
    Perhaps you mean dual?
