It certainly was. I'm guessing that's what slowed you down, since I got up to Lindale and (somewhere else and) home again after this before posting

You were quite a bit ahead of me (your pic taken about 4:50 and mine was taken about 6:30). But you are right, I got lost on the Rimutakas and had to keep riding up and down lots of times till I found my way out and back home. Traffic was light, sun-strike was bearable, road was warm and dry and clean. It was worth losing the tag for all the fun I had.

Thanks heaps to cloggy for getting me off the sofa

Not posted till 7ish though.

Yes, a confusing road that - so many bends, you lose your sense of direction

Agreed - me likewise.

Not a file pic; I've come straight home from this.

Car park at the end of Whitehouse Road, Titahi Bay. Bowling club in the background - and, no, I am not a lawn bowler

Nice one. Did you have some intel on that , I'd been searching all the RSA's and War Memorials, wouldn't have even thought of a Bowling club.

[rwh]

Very good
I hadn't even noticed it was a bowling club - I found it several weeks ago, cruising round looking for something interesting to tag, but didn't feel like stopping there at the time, in the dark and with 'loitering youths'.
I would have described it as 'Carpark at Titahi Bay shops', since that's the sign I followed to get there.

No intel required. I had been there years ago. I couldn't quite place it - but it came to me in the blinding flash of light this morning after the coffee kick-started the grey matter

The funny archways on the shopping centre would have also made an interesting tag

[KapitiLizard]

And speaking of arches, this new one is a file pic (taken 3rd Feb mid evening)

I rode between some bollards to get here as the access gate was closed. Access is easy for all normal size bikes, just don't try to squeeze the Gold Wing thru

i just come back from petone station...it was very similar but not right
