    Because that's what most people call the route to Kikau Cave.. but in fact it is the bit between SH22 and Nikau Cave (Waikaretu Valley Rd) which is particularly bad at the moment.

    why include Nikau caves in heading. They got SFA to do with subject. do u work or a newspaper as your title has as much relevance of some headlines.


    Sooner people start riding to the conditions less crashes there will be.


    what else would you like to report. it might rain today

    this thread is a total waste

    nuke it

    1a my point is that irresponsible titles like this can effect business's that have nothing to do with this. You called of titled thread "Warning Road to Nikau Caves"

    but then its still a waste of a thread like warning everyone to slow down in the rain, ride to the conditions."

    1b

    !c why not tell us about your like starting with your birth, may be more interesting

    1d personal attack, thats mature

    Well if you're that concerned, we can ask the Admins to change the name to "Riding to Nikau Cave and Cafe? A warning!" Would that make you feel all warm and fuzzy?

    i did not call you any insulting names.

    Now on a more important note "Warnng Mcdonalds Greenlane, life threatening, "watch out for the traffic lights outside this location they change from green to amber to red. "

    Like sands through an hour glass etc etc etc...

    Sounds like a perfectly acceptable back country road.

    It was much better before they sealed the road down to Nikau Caves, now all sorts of idiots go down there. 22 is still fun though.

    Thanks to the admin for changing the name..

    igor, there are more ways to be insulting than by calling names..

    (and that was one..)

    22 is shite. Best people stay away from it.
    Utter shite. Never has a road been worse than that.

    Definitely not suitable for bikes.

    Don't encourage them, Motu.

    seein as I am possibly the most recent non-regular rider of the road, I found it perfectly fine. I didnt expect mint conditions. As long as you're not riding like a madman.. its perfectly reasonable.

    Oh yes, totally agree.
    Bikers should definitely go for Twilight Rd than SH22.
    Definitely.

    The more people staying off SH22 = the better.
