    personally I go far too fast sometimes, but the time it takes to get from A-B is a pointless exercise, some one else is always a better story teller, or you never know what traffic you encounter.
    The best rides are not always the fastest
    and personally the quickest way is not always the best ride or drive

    lifes too short - take the scenic route
    Live long and prosper ……………… or ride a motorbike

    Cock size has nought to do with it. I was essentially agreeing with Al, with a smooth run, no traffic and a good run up the hill it doesn't take that long. I'm not the sort to engage in measurement contests, they don't prove anything and things end up escalating to unwanted levels.....

    I have no idea what way we went back, but the roads were very pretty, and a lot nicer than the trip there. And yeah, Nigel lead us the way back. Once we got to Hamilton, he skipped off home to pick up his dog, and we hung out at the Te Rapa Tavern for a while.

    I've always found it funny how ding-a-ling size is always compared amongst guys. It seems more logical to compare it amongst the ladies That's how I swing anyway. Personally, I like to think it's not the size that matters, it's how "adaptable" it is to the situation...

    ...but fuck me that's quick! From TA to Tauranga, the best I've done is 1:05 hrs but that's keeping under the ticket mark. Never had a clean ran in all my years. In saying that, I do know someone that has done TA to New Plymouth in 2 hours. That was moving just a little bit. I shall not reveal the time from Christchurch to Picton...

    How's that for cock size?

    It all comes down to where you measure from, I was meaning "edge to edge", and I have had days of seeing 3 cars the whole trip on state highways. Was cruising sorta semi legal. Most times its about an hour five plus or minus five...

    "Moving average" is the key to getting anywhere in a hurry or if you want to be maintaining the moving average over a length of time is even hardier

    re. work license, don't need one but thanks for the offer though
    With respect the last time I looked the distance from Hamilton to Tauranga was 108 kms. To do that in 50 mins I think that you would need to be averaging something close to 130 kms per hour. Please correct me if My maths are wrong.

    Don't want to argue Jim, but you are assuming main roads and start and stop points. My route is under 100k with only one 50k area.

    I have checked using both Google maps and map source, and the shortest route via any road from city centre to city centre is 105 km. To do it in around 50 mins at "Just above 100kph " you would need to find a route that was less than 83 km. A straight line (helicopter anyone?) is 81 km, so I would love to find the road that is nearly a straight line.
    Time to ride

    Yup, I don't advocate speeding, but this is getting old, real fast.

    Had a good ride back following the roads you told me about Al. About half way through Taotaoroa Road the bike started handling like shit. Took the main roads home after that. Turns out the steering head bearing was quite loose.

    I think Taotaoroa Road is one of the best around. Just needs to be longer!
