    North west is the direction but I think it will pass and be OK north
    how is it at yours Boris

    Its going to be one of those days if you go you get wet (a bit) if you dont it turns into a great day and you regret not going

    If we all turn up in full wet weather gear, sod's law says we are almost guaranteed a dry day.

    Let me know how you get on with that I think you are again running onto the same weather pattern that we got yesterday.

    Like the email I got from Hampton downs "Its gorgeous, blah blah, Weathermen don't know what they are talking about, Blah balh... Man last place I would have wanted to be was on the track yesterday afternoon". Sometimes the weather guys are right.

    Info from anyone north would be useful (this is where it will come from)

    I am intending to go unless it turns to shit before 9:30

    Titirangi will probably get some though
    Ok Warkworth is fine, blue skies a few grey clouds. Looks a bit dark out to the west, but no sign of rain in the sky over the hills. North is blue skies and sunny.

    occasional bit of damp road is all we got

    Yep, worked

    We saw some rain in the distance a couple of times, and found a couple of short stretches of wet road, but overall a great ride.

    Bugger... but then arriving wet would have put the damper (sp) on it for me. Glad you guys had a good ride.

    Rode from Auckland to New Plymouth a couple of decades ago in similar conditions half the way and got there relatively dry. The old PVC Line7 gear was great in winter.
