sorry didnt see, what time would we get back approximately?

**Slyer** · 26th January 2010, 14:20

Late afternoon, before 6 at most.

**PirateJafa** · 26th January 2010, 17:53

Allowing for the usual one long lunch and one minor crash, we should be back around 4-5pm.

**Rayray401** · 26th January 2010, 20:42

Sigh, cant go, no money for gas lol.

**zzzbang** · 27th January 2010, 18:22

See you guys there

SH2? All of that can be avoided if you're smart about it.

Head out through Hunua and past Miranda and you'll pop out on SH25 at Waitakaruru.

Dunno why any biker would ride SH2 to Coro from Auckland..............

*facepalm*

That is already the plan, and has been since the start.

We just figured there was no point putting it up on the map, else keyboard warriors would arrive saying that X route is better than our Y route, and Squiggles would be scared off by the prospect of corners. Plus I know a couple of certain numpties who would try to memorise that route from google maps, rather than just following the leader.

Yer that's just Google's route, the start and stop points are the important things.

Forget Mt Taranaki and do the Forgotten Highway (SH43) twice. You won't regret it.

And make sure you stop for one of their Whanga burgers too! Omnomnom.

keyboard warriors or folk who thought using SH2 is just plain crazy...........................

re following the leader: not something i'm much good at, never been much of a follower

earth mother who art everywhere
hallowed by thy name
thy highways come
thy windies be done
on earth as it is in herven

if i come will people get upset if i don't play follow the leader? It's been weeks since i had a ride
