Good rides around Auckland area?

[Bass]

Auck to Cape Reinga and back.
Up via SH16, Waipoua, Rawene ferry, Ahipara.
Down via Mangamuka, Kaikohe, Twin Bridges, Maungakaramea, Paparoa, Woodcocks, SH16.
It's about 1050 km according to my odo and so it's a pretty busy day, but over the sort of roads that the VFR will adore. It also includes about 40 km of gravel just to keep it interesting.
Of course, if you are a pussy like me or actually interested in looking at some of the remarkable territory that you are riding through, then you could make 2 days of it.

SH16 to West Coast rd, right into Woodcocks Rd to Warkworth, have coffee, do u turn, repeat, smile.

I always thought the best roads in Auckland were the roads out

Try SH22 for lunch at Raglan.

I'm keen to know about any good day trips in and around Auckland.
