    nah mate if you cant see around it your right in not trusting it, ride it like there is a tractor parked on your exit.
    With other corners just keep chasing that point between the inside road line and the outside road line (in your lane) the closer those two lines are the tighter the corner, the further apart the faster the corner.......................get it ??

    if in doubt dont be going in to fast, ulitmate rule of thumb, slow in fast out.
    go slow and work your pace up, get your lines and body positions soughted as well as the gear and braking work, get that all smooth, speed comes later (pref on the track)

    hi all,

    Did a lap in the weekend I thought you guys & girls may wish to look at one day.

    Headed out from Te awamutu along SH3 all the way down to Mokau stoppedthere for coffee & munchies came back the same way, but got me a boogie on through the Awakino gorge turned off at Piopio headed up into Mairoa & Oparure down into Waitomo stoped for more coffe at the Huhu cafe then out towards Te anga, SH 31 then 39 crossed over to Te kawa onto Wharepuhunga rd followed this all the way to Mangatutu rd headed towards Paewhenua onto Otewa road back way into Otorohanga back onto SH39 headed towards Pirongia short detour through Bird rd & home

    Total kms @ 400+

    there are many ways you can cross over,plenty of twisties for those who wish to get a boogie on & also plenty of fuel stops well within reach for those who don't have large fuel capacity.

    I know SH3 may put you off but it's short lived & a nice way to allow those that have had a Murray breakie to digest it properly before letting go

    Sounds champion something to work towards, i think a 5+ hour ride would be a bit much for me in the RR seating arrangement !

    Life would be so much easier if you addressed questions with a simple answer.

    Quasi is right . .the lake road is sweet ..

    All roads are sealed.

    if people want to do the quickie out to port waikato, then stop at bombays.

    Mrs TA ain't going anywhere .. shoulder vs horse .. shoulder 0, horse 1

    Quasi: have you really not got a road bike now eh? .. what happened to the adv thing?

    touché. I always love being able to use that word. No doubt I'm probably using it completely wrong.

    You, me, 6R vs GT any day buddy! (economy run that is haha. I get speed wobbles over 50km/h). I am just jealous though

    Agree with the lake rd being good also (if it's that one I'm thinking off). Never done it on 2 wheels though, only 4, so it can only be better.
