    Talking Anyone else on holiday?

    On holiday for 2 weeks. Any reccos for a good day or half day ride departing auckland?

    Anyone else want to go for a cruise down the corromandel mid week without all those bloddy jaffas hangin around busying up the road?

    Or head up for some back roads up north?

    Ps slow rider, so any trackday heroes wanting to come will need to be patient.

    Have a "flight plan" from Bike Rider Magazine recommending a 250km ride starting from the Albany Challenge station.

    Sounds fun and Sounds like 19/8 is all good

    Any one got a a time they need to start or finnish by? Otherwise 10 am sounds like a good start time to me. the ride should take 2-3 hours plus stops. Haven't done the ride myself but it looks good! Lots of tight stuff, some nice straights, all back roads in some good scenic areas.


    Also later in the week or next week I am keen to do another one down to Otorahonga (another BRM one). or corromandel loop.
    Timing to depend on who wants to come when.

    i don't think I could actually buy my dream bike and then force myself NOT to ride it before pulling it to bits. I'm sure i'd have a nervous breakdown!

    Anyway... count me in as one who's keen to do the coromandel loop. I've only got to whitianga so far and have heard wonderful stories about the road to coromandel and fond memories of the road down to thames ina  car!

    Sounds like coro loop on tuesday is a go. Never been myself so should be fun.
    Should be good with a min of traffic.
