Think Balclutha

[Emlyn]

I will probably travel at least some of it Friday KH... but I have a lecture until 11am... so would probably leave a bit late for many... will see what happens closer to the time.. thanks for the offer
Thanks NH... I played round with Google maps.. looks like a couple of interesting by-ways... and the Escapade to consider... will be a good weekend!

Map as asked for. Balclutha is easy to find. Follow the bikes to the coastal township of Kaka point.(Well signposted) The Rally site is a few km's on the south side of the town.

Awesome FJR... that is a much clearer map than the one I was pondering.. thanks

[NighthawkNZ:Me]

Its about 20km from the metropolis of Balclutha

The shaded route in from the southern end is gravel. The turn off to Kaka Point, off the road to Owaka (a big sign), is just past the Telford farm training institute. (also well signposted)

Emlyn, Kerry and and I were just talking about things and think possibly we might head down to Dunedin on the Friday and stay at the camping ground, the accommodation is not 5 star there but none the less a pleasant stop and affordable.

Given that info I can not recommend the camping ground in Balclutha, we rode in to there on the way back from the Burt, the guy took one look at us and must have decided to attempt to fleece us, (or he did not want dirty motorcyclists in the place), the prices instantly doubled over the published rates and all sorts of extras came out of the wood work, no I never told him I had the latest Jason book in my back.

No need for a map. Just head south and once you pass over the bridge at Balclutha take every road to the left except "No exit" ones. You can't miss it.
