Where to go?

[canarlee]

no rude answers please


i have monday and tuesday off work and i want to go exploring.

i dont mind riding for a few hours there and back from hawkes bay but i dont know where to go!

i want some nice roads, a cheap hostel type of place to stay in for the night and to go somewhere that is worth getting to.


any ideas peeps?

Have not done much riding myself

But might i suggest maybe go to New Plymouth will be a nice long ride from east to west and as for Cheap Hostel might i suggest to the KB lot in your area if they have a place to crash they should offer

and make it an over nighter too? sounds good to me!


ok, now i need another suggestion lol


am thinking wellington or northland.......

ifn ya heading welly, pop into wangas, and ill buy ya a coffee and a tank of gas. might be able to offer a couch, depending what time of day. [ie, evening arrival will get you an offer, but early morning wont, since it would be a waste of a day]

and yeh... i think the naki needs a longer break from you.

[canarlee]

well i have made a decision.


im going to head to the bay of islands.


i will be leaving napier early (prolly around 7 am), aiming to get there mid afternoon.


anyone got any reccomendations for place to stay/eat, any good roads in the area, places/things to see, etc.


i will be getting up early on tuesday to go exploring in the area and heading back down to napier about 3 pm. i know its only a short trip but hey.

Head into Paihia and take a left up to Haruru Falls, tidy well-priced accommodation up there on the right, two places to choose from. If you need spanners go to Bay of Islands Auto and Marine, ask for Marcus, tell him pc sent ya.

Enjoy your ride.
