Who wants to ride during the week?

[TOTO]

West coast? Piha...

too short IMO ....south east

[ital916]

can someone post up the map of the route for the coro loop? For those that have never done it.

Hi Toto, would be keen on a moderate trip as I will have Ramon. Also wish to be back in time for the ATNR. Open for options, will stay tuned.

I'm only angry at the world *as the tag says* because of all the idiots that inhabit it , grrrr DUSHY SMASH *hmm I wonder if I can get purple expanding motorcycle pants*

[Macstar]

You can take SH 16 up to Kumeu, turn off to the coast hit Bethels beach, then cruise along Scenic drive out to Piha and back along Scenic drive to Titarangi village for lunch at Hells Pizza. That would be a solid 2-3 hr ride and some of the best cornering practice you can get.

I do this route quite often and it is bloody awesome!

when I shot through kumeu yesterday i didn't see a turn off to the coast, where in kumeu is that.

[Macstar]

Turn left on the road that goes over the railway lines in Kumeu town, then take the first left again and then it is sign posted form there on (from memory).

Oh cool - Havent seen Ramon since the last hollidays. I was thinking maybe half coroloop - a nice 4-5 hour ride with a good stop over at Goroglen for refreshements.

Anger is part of your character bro, dont let it go away

then you cant miss the coro loop on sunday. I wanna check that hot new ride you got that everyone is talking about

Nah mate I'll be bloody keen have not had a good ride since 2 months ago...new ride? it isnt as horny as your bike though...just need to sort out the suspension settings within the week so I can ride it in the weekend.

I thought I was the only one who found that funny when it was first said! Anyway, it would seem two other pikers took their litre bikes the twisty way to Mission Bay on Sun rather than the Coro loop...

Hehe...I am doing all I can to scrub my front bro...will make it up to you for the next coming ride...

too short IMO ....south east

Darn stuck in the office with paper work...and the sun is nice and bright

[ital916]

I'm doing a coro loop tomorrow, so can someone post up the route, pretty please otherwise I'd prob get lost haha and being a guy I don't read or carry maps.

There's a map in the SMC ride thread here:

Although I think it might be a shortened version (yet to do a full loop myself).

[Squiggles]

Do the full loop, i.e. not the kopu hills, go down through whanga to waihi then across the gorge to paeroa, then back from there...

or you could do a figure 8 of the loop?

[Macstar]

So what's the deal Toto? I might take a day off this week and would be keen for a pre-coro loop loop to compliment the Coro loop I did on Sunday

[Nivosus]

i have all next week off so id be keen toddy!

[Timati]
