Seems good ride,are you turning at Egmont Village and coming out at Bell Block,nice hilly twisty road,has a few trucks travelling along it.There is a gas station on corner of Egmont Rd & SH3 turn off and petrol 2c cheaper wohoo,just be weary crossing onto main rd at end of Egmont Rd,can be real busy,could be a starter for 10.Otherwise if slower riders(me)want too send them along sh3a turn right at Inglewood so don't head to NP,they will make up the ground quick than going your way,then can meet at junction sh3 &sh3a and cruise into Waitara.Hope it helps.

It'd be rude not to do at least part of it, being my bornday and all. Let's not forget oil stops.

You realise you are going right past 2 of the very best motorcycling roads the north Island has to offer aye?

SH4 from Whanganui to Tohunga Junction and SH43 from Taumarunui to Stratford.

When heading south on SH4 there is a twisty road 52km sign, it isn't every day you see one of those.

See this post for a review of SH43.

[QUOTE=chanceyy;1225828]hey guys, since this sounds like quite a pacey ride for more experience riders

I have a cunning plan for you so called slower folks.
Why don't you join the trip to Waitara,then tootle back at own pace,say round the coast(sh45) back to home,agree you basically travel same route back except coastal round Taranaki,but from Hawera home is repeat from start.Might get a few locals to do the run round the mountain with you.
