Maraetai - Clevedon WATCH OUT

**Brett** · 23rd November 2006, 12:52

If anyone is planning to head that way, dont. I would recommend avoiding these roads if you can avoid them The road that links from the end of Maraetai to Clevedon is almost entirely road works. There is new chip and tar everywhere, and the riding is sloooooooow.

That would be north road I think.

heh, I guess I should have posted this up as well since I rode it yesterday and found that out too!

Very slow, but I caught the scenery this time for once! Out Hunua ways there's work going on as well - 30 means 30! (unless you riding motard style!)

Yeah, also quite a bit of work out heading towards Kaiaua. I actually also ran into a flock of sheep being walked along the road, that took some time to weave through.
