Big thank you too Tart and MSTRS for having us this weekend. Yummy food as alwasy...nice slow cooked meaty/vege/gravy stuff and primo Soup and roast chicken.....

They even threw in an earthquake..4.7??
Tart kicked my undies around as well, lucky I was not in them at the time...

Made good time coming home, 6 hours. Stoped at Toke for a burger and smoke. Right at Tirua...Matamata, then left into a road that brought us in the backway to Morrinstown, up to Tahuna then out to Ohinewai. Stop number two. Saw a decent smash on the M/Way just by the East Tamaki off ramp, 4WD towing a racecar of sorts was on its side blocking two lanes, we had passed that vehicle at Ohinewai (where we stoped for a smoke)

Thanks again J and J....Ya'll are very special.....

What time did you go past there? Tart sent me a text about diverting through Manukau. Decided to take my chances otherwise I would still be riding around looking to get out of Manukau (I'm not good with directions). Was all clear when I came through. Not much traffic on the road. Sat on 110 most of the way.

I second the Thanks to J & J. I could have been sleeping in Grandad's backyard if you guys weren't such great people that came back and got me and gave me a good bed. He was quite shocked he didn't hear my knocking on his bedroom window. Apparently that was the best night's sleep he had in a while.

Thanks to all that rode with me back today too. Had a whoops moment on the bit of road with the bumps heading down into a 35k corner and then a 25K. It unsettled me a bit but started to relax again.

Stormy1...Thanks heaps for lagging behind me. I really appreciated it, hope I didn't make your ride too boring for you.

Basically to all the Hawkes Bay people....You guys rock!!!! Always great company, great laughs and all have hearts of gold. Love the lot of ya

Bring on summer riding where I will hopefully be visiting more often..... Whoohooooo!!!!!

Dunno, but....we were home at 3.30 so im guessing around 2pm?
There was an 11km back up traffic from Waiwera (stock truck breakdown on the Waiwera Hill heading south)..thank fuck we were heading north!!!
