Take a look at the Whangarei website, (they have their own website..) there's a whole list of back packers, camp grounds, hotels, motels, hovels etc. etc.

Linky

Anything there should be alright.


Haha, this one's on a farm! The Coast Road Farm BBH Backpackers Hostel. They offer free milk, sounds like fun to me.

I have my eye on your lines Raj. Time, funds and health and may even be able to keep up with you after some time.

Have fun Raj.

Peace

Ur lookin good mate, ur already doing better than me when I was where you are. I love riding with u guys because you all have such nice attitudes. If I had posted the same comment in another thread it would have been ripped to shreads, spat on mocked and red repped. Some from people who havent even met me or know how conservative I am on the road. Have a safe fun as trip.

Why the running shoes ? wouldn't flip flops do it for you ?

Riding boots look just AWESOME with combat pants, but turn into gum boots when you wear shorts
Meh, I'l chuck them in if they fit, if not then the flip-flops come out.

I will be bringing my little rg toolkit along with a few spare plugs and a ratchet with extension and 10 12 14 mm sockets and a spark plug socket in case someone somehow breaks their bike lol. Toto you have the puncture repair kits and first aid kit. If you can get ej's puncture kit I can carry that. Yo badger you bringing the jerry can? The rg eats through petrol so I WILL be filling up every 200 k's lol. Mobile phone chargers are a good idea, cos if your phone dies and you get stuck eh. since we will be riding most of the time I'm bringing light clothes. One pair of shorts, one t shirt some socks and some undies. Water, some snacks and some jandals. Two one litre bottles of two stroke oil too. Any other two strokers coming, if so do that and bring two one litre bottles of oil. So on the first day we are hoping to cover roughly 400km, not bad. A nice day ride with stops to sight see, take a leak and eat. I'll be cruising at the back of the pack most likely so if any super super fresh riders are coming I am happy to cruise with you guys. Who is tec toto? When we meet at shell westgate on friday we can exchange numbers and stuff. Or if your keen we can meet on thursday and discuss stuff and have a catch up. Far out who knew I could be so responsible, i'll have to make up for it by pulling a stunt, like jumping the rg over a car or something lol jokes.

[TOTO]

I'll have a puncture kit , who else has got one ? First aid will stay with me also cos it hapened that I will have heaps of space in the backpack. TEC will be decided on the in shell westgate. Charger is probably a good idea too, thanks drider87. I'll get muesli bars with me - light, tasty and filling

Can you people who are coming to the tour PM me your Cellphone numbers together with your real name... it will save us some time on friday morning.

So far we have 13 sure people registered (the other 2 are not coming but can not sign off) and I have reserved 15 places so we have 2 spare. You have a chance. Let me know when you know if you are joining us. hope you make it.

P.s If any of yall wants to talk what a great time we are going to have on the tour you can come to ATNR and we can talk there and in bar africa afterwords. I would have just picked the bike from service so it would be nice to go for a spin on thursday night

[Badger8]

i'll also have a modest toolkit on board and be waaayyyy out the back of the pack, so if anyone has any troubles just flag me down!
I also reckon it'd be a good idea for EVERYONE on the ride to write their cell #s down on a list, just in case. Leave it with Toto or somethin...
I dont mind going TEC if needed, or me and Chocco can switch-hit it, whatever You're more than welcome to hang out at the back with us Drider, ridden with you once before when you were pretty fresh, so keen to see how you've improved
I think i will likely bring the jerrycan, just depends if i can fit it in the saddlebags there's quite a few of us with short tanks ranges, but other than the jaunt to the cape i cant see them being a problem
