Scratch Tauranga off the list.

Of 'Where do i want to go for a ride to' places. - Down the coast road anyway.

From Katikati to Tauranga is ALL double yellow lines now. What's that? 30km of them without an opportunity to pass at all. Pass.

There is that neat road that hugs the kaimais before crossing them - next time.

The coast is as bad as the matamata straights now.

But Waihi to Whangamata is one of my fave bits of road anywhere ;-(

Damn gubmint.

Maaaate - the luck I've had with Rozzas lately - yes.
The other 8 blokes I was riding that stretch with (Pirelli 500 crew) were much the same.

I went down to Tauranga today on SH2 and 27 in the slowest ute ever built...I dunno what it is about people down there, but shit they drive slow, and there was absolutely nowhere to pass, not in that thing anyway...not sure if that's the road you're talking about Dave...?
