For some strange reason I always take the same route back and forth to work.
Today I took a longer commute home and it was awesome!!
Red = my normal way, fast but boring
Green = tried it today - some real nice corners, no traffic until just before carlise road
Forum whore
I could vary my commute I guess but it is hardly any more exciting. Takes approximately 7-8 seconds to walk up the hallway to my place from the office & approx 30-32 seconds to walk out the front door & around the side of the building to my apartment
It has been suggested a real biker would get a scooter for this "commute"
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

Good work Fizbin - now if I feel the need for a free red TL I know exactly where to get one.
There's only two good spots on my normal commute route - the Pakuranga Highway where anything goes, and Takutai Ave, which depends on the time of day.

To and from...not often to work, but mostly where I go.
(Edit) seems wises links don't work for some reason...the route in blue is basically through Whitford.
Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

Agreed! The route you took (along Beach Road) is a wonderful ride, lots of twistie for some good cornering (nice beach view as well). I usually start from Milford beach then go along the way, pass Browns Bay to Long Bay beach! Nice morning ride for a sunny day.
BogOff-Cant you see I'm busy?
This is a great idea if you and your sharing pillion start and leave work at the same time.
Othersie it would be quite difficult to manage.
