    250 two-day tour anyone?

    I'm just thinking...

    The last trip I did was great I loved it

    But I heard many people say "I want to do it too", "I'm keen" etc etc

    So, If I were to organise a two day trip around Rotorua, Taupo etc etc who would be keen?

    Just a cheap and not too short (not a ride but a trip) tour perhaps?

    Who would be keen?

    P.S. not any time soon! I need a good rest now lol Plus save some money too lol


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    I've learnt to hide the pain inside, open the throttle and ride away.

    I'm an hour north of rotorua and I might have a couple of riders to meet up with you in rotorua. Will see what I can find.

    I'd be up for that.

    However I'm doing a four-day tour up north on Monday, then I'll hopefully be doing an overnighter down to Kawhia in March. Funds might be short!

    The term "Keen!" doesn't cover what I am!
    Also I may (MAY!) be able to get us free accommodation down there... No promises though.

    Awesome mate, I don't even mind the floor if it's free!


    How about all the way around lake Taupo?
    Or a tour of the lakes around Rotorua?
    Any body else know some good roads in those areas?

    If I can pull a favor then you might not have too! If we can get some ideas for dates then I can see what I can do. If things line up then I can get 5-6 people (who are happy to clean up after themselves) beds and a safe place to park bikes overnight.

    Between work and life and upcoming trackdays not sure I'll be able to but I'm definitely keen.

    Want to do east cape one day but that'd be more than 2 days.

    One day is a ride not a tour lol

    I'll think about it probably Fri-Sat getaway?

    or we can wait till next holiday lol

    I reckon It'd be best if you dont do it during 'holidays' like easter or 3 day weekends. This is when moron cagers go and crash into things, drive on the wrong side of the road and do other cageresque things.
