I'll be meeting EJK tomorrow near Wellington. Paced trip back. Won't be heading out of the capital probably before 4pm so looking at 6.00pm to 6.30pm arrival.

What's the recommended best bypass (PN) route in the wet.

turn off at Kimberly road (just south of Levin) its signposted .. back through shannon, linton & turn off at old west road & back road to Ashhurst .. bout 40 mins from Levin to Ashhurst just watch the roadworks around the opiki turn off but last time I went through it was all good

[cowboyz]

take the shannon road (turn off just before Levin and go round back of Levin)

then when you get closer to palmy take old west road which is the one that runs out the back of massey. that will take you to summerhill drive. then turn right at the top of summerhill, go aoekatree and striaght on to ashhurst.

[cowboyz]

yeah, what she said

[KiwiKat]

Thanks Chanceyy and Cowboyz. (are you two twims or something) That'll cut some time off. Traffic is likely to be hectic for a while.

If you get out of wellington before just before 4 you should be ok .. after that you will hit it around Plimmerton & it will be slow til you get to the double lanes before pram (double yellow & careful about lane splitting) .. then between pram & waikanae can be quite slow .. after that it should be pretty much plain sailing from that point

Check my edit.

[Meanie]

Probably wont come out to meet you now, Kiwikat has it under control.
When you come into Ashhurst from Aokautetre, turn right towards township off main road and then just as you come round the bend turn left into Short street, we are round the corner, no 16
Hafe a safe one guys

I'd like to be the first to say a big thank you to Meanie and Monie for hosting a great mid-week barbeque. Dave and I even squeezed in a ride through the gorge and back over the saddle

Nice to meet you EJ. I hope your luck with the weather remains through your journey home. Ride safe.

[cowboyz]

Yeah, great night, thanks to Meanie & Monie for hosting, and great to meet you EJK.

It was only as we were chatting and he mentioned his former Scorpio that I realised EJK used to have a much longer handle on KB and was the EJK of the legendary "binning his scorpio while photographed getting knee-down" thread. Great to meet you, and hope you enjoy your trip back norf!

Oh and cowboyz: behave yourself!
