    JWALKER returning to ride the roads he grew up on.

    Hi Guys/girls

    I am riding up to the north island on boxing day to ride some of the roads i grew up on and never got to ride with a bike.

    straight roads?, only if you head south .
    lot of hills and tight corners around here, but will be nice to ride some different roads

    Yes, and there's bound to be a few rides between then and new year. In fact, I believe there's a ride to Castle Point on the 28th.

    Right, you're in for a treat then. Google those roads and you'll see what I mean
