    If we are finishing at the Patumahoe pub, I seem to remember that there might be a good reason for bringing it forward a day to the Saturday. Im not certain, but I don't think that the good reason applies on a Sunday.
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.

    There is a reason on the saturday only.
    Sunday there is a better reason to stop @ the village bar

    Cool Couple (bad i know) route maps

    Will try to find a better one......later

    Most will have done these roads before anyway.

    May try the 'corner man' system, any volunteer for tail end charlie?

    It will be that or if the bike behind you can't see you turn at an intersection stop and wait till they do.

    BP to port waikato via klondyke 62.4km
    And if i read Cary's route correctly it'd be 128kms from the Port to Tuakau via the cafe and added loop.
    Less than 20km from Tuakau to The Village Bar and Grill in Patumahoe.

    So 210-220 kms.
    Does that sound about right Cary?

    Cool GPS is never wrong.........

    GPS tells me it's 66k from Tuakau(fuel) to Cafe & 120k from Cafe to Patti Tavern(17k less if you refuel at Tuakau again)

    Soooo you'll need 170k range........

    Bass is coming along so just bring a hose Don't think he charges much for fuel transport

    Just so people know....... There is no fuel at the cafe tho. Port waikato would be best for those with small tanks (Less than 150km range) to fill up. Then only 120km's til next fill.
