Laxed out rides

[Spazm]

I wouldn't mind taking this route later in the spring or in the summer

http://maps.google.co.nz/maps?f=d&so...8,2.897644&z=9

Key notes:

-5km of gravel Rd
-mostly technical roads with ALOT of corners
-some Spectacular views
-petrol is rare on the route.. full when starting and a petrol station at the halfway point
- i'd rate it over the coro loop but then i'm just a freak
- in winter time there is alot of grit on these routes

So some fresh routes would be tasty. Unless the mountain calls

42nd Traverse anyone ?

I vote for the routes we haven't done. Do some recon work before summer hits. Going on what road conditions were like last year, I'm thinking I'm gonna be hammering the bike in Spring and not full-on Summer. Riding molten tar sucks so I'm gonna be getting in my money's worth early.

That being said, suggest one

I'm liking that one dude!

[The Flux Capacita]

that looks intense...i'd be keen for that in summer...need to find some new surfing spots and using the motorbike to scout doesn't seem like a bad idea...speaking of which i'm heading down to honda to find out how mine is doing

If this is the one we did that day, I can vouch for it. Pretty much all corners, none of this straight bull shit and being some remote adds a bit more spice to it. The gravel is fine and I cruised it at 60km/h easy.

If it's not the one I'm thinking of...forget what I said.

As for suggesting a route...I don't know back roads so I'm pretty useless.

Yeah we took this route down but not the way back..

Nice route Have been through on 4 Wheels but not two.
Hamilton Ulysses is heading for Mokau for white fritters on Sunday 20 September. Will probably come back up the coast.

Yeah... you have to keep your focus or not ride hard.. alot of the corners are not signposted for recommended speed... But i still love it

This is a great road , did it two summers ago two up on the trusty VTR. Would be a starter again. The side trip to Waikawau beach worth a visit as well BUT dont try and ride through the tunnel at the end that goes to the beach ......nearly a bad move on my part

[carver]

or not ride hard..

how do you do this?

He rides with me

well worth popping down to the end of the road to go thru the tunnel, no room to turn the bike around at the other end though.

If we do stop there - no skinny dipping (ok carver)
