Different rides out of East Auckland?

[Lucy]

So you've done the legwork once - do it again.

Shit, that's half the fun of riding.

(Did I get your name right this time?)

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Gotta spread some bling before pinging you again, but that was classic!

yeah i have done that round there with gremlin we ended up having a ball (well i did) on my new 10r on the gravel for about 20-30km down some private logging road, fun as hell it was, can see why people like you love the gravel, motu...

hehehehe, yeh, get to an intersection, struggle to actually park the bike, coz of the mounds of gravel everywhere. Guy comes along in a ute, asking why we are here (dressed up in one piece leathers, sportsbikes etc) we state we are a bit lost, looking for some really nice hidden tarmac. He looks at us bemused, and says, well, there isn't any here... Funny that, we reply, we have been noticing...

He says we need to get out before we get locked in. Coming back down and out of the forestry area, I have an absolute ball passing n4cr on the right hand side, near the edge, arse sideways, rear wheel spinning on gravel. Great laugh, except for corners... some were very tricky with all the road gear, stiff suspension etc.

edit: get up to date maps... really really twisty roads look promising... unless its forestry, with one lane, and gravel/rock.

I've heard theres some good no exit roads off the road between Hunua and the Hunua Gorge...... haven't explored them myself tho...

i'm a paranoid capsophobic!

Thats cos you didn't listen to your mother, ya know she had a point aye?...

doesn't require say, 2 hours of motorway first.

Something is wrong if you can manage to stay on 84km bit of road for two hours.....

Hello, I am looking for some variation over the usual Whitford, Clevedon, Monument, Kawakawa roads out East Auckland way. I would prefer a ride (in any direction) that can be done in about a 2.5 hour period. Any suggestions? I would prefer something that is fairly good from the outset and doesn't require say, 2 hours of motorway first. If not could you please make some new roads?

Thank you.

Check this out, always good,
