    Haha, good luck to them. I'm almost due to cash in for my reward in the points loyalty program, so not exceeding the open road limit anyway.
    The fun part is not slowing for the corners.

    We tried a couple of years back, they are just dirt roads.

    Google street view is good for that but sometimes it stops halfway up a road.
    Nothing beats just riding up a road to see where it comes out.

    Hey Bawked. This may not be suitable for LAMs approved bikes, even the ZXR250.
    In the event Juniper joins us, it won't be on her ZXR this time, we would be 2-up in order to get my bike cornering smoother and quicker.

    There is a good chance that several others would be keen to get a second group going too. We could all meet up for lunch. Stay tuned.

    (I don't always ride with the quick kids, I enjoy going both ways lol)

    Recently tried the same, and spoke with a local who told us there are still quite a few km's of gravel. So ended up doing the straights again.

    Yeah, seen him around a lot recently. He's been quite active in recruiting new members into the loyalty program.

    Got to spend time with a mate whose leaving.
    What's the point in living if you don't feel alive?

    Toying with ones mortality shouldn't be this much fun.

    Well the various weather forecasts don't seem to agree. The most consistent part was that it would be dry in Auckland.
    I'll still go to Caltex Dairy Flat in the morning, although I'm not keen to ride wet roads, so we can reassess the direction of travel once at Dairy Flat.

    Good call, even my driveway is still wet, no breeze.
