    That is a shame, why don't you (dare I say this) drive over (it isnt too far is it) on Friday and have a cold one with us?

    Would be good to catch up.

    The Matawai petrol station was closed on the Sunday I did the Motu recently.
    Could this be a problem?

    I can do about 350k on a tank, the orange "oh hell" light will be on for too long before i start walking.

    Mark, you may have to tow a trailer with fuel!

    Few corners before the pub on the left heading from Taupo.
    So next place on your right heading to Taupo after the now closed pub for you!

    Nothing that a syphon hose won't fix.
    Maybe Clint can sort out a refuel from Tama Iti when we cross the Urewera's.
    I heard they have a heap of molly cocktails.

    Wellie Crew

    [QUOTE=4skins;1653145]Does anyone have a plan yet??

    Hi John, I plan on leaving PPram around midday (got to do oil change Fri morning) also but will be staying in Hastings Friday night (business appointment!!!) and meeting Clint and the crew at the northern end of Pohokura Road on SH5 at about 9:15 am sat morning. If you are keen to ride as far as Palmy/Sanson in convoy all good.
    As for Sunday night, not sure where I will end up but I will be riding back to Wellie on Monday so we could hook-up for the journey home?
