... and I have sod all to do tomorrow! I've got my hands on a rental Speed Triple but I'm entirely at a loss as to where to go with it. Has anyone got any recommendations or better yet, does anyone have free time tomorrow?

Follow SH2 up to Upper Hutt. Keep going til Featherston, then turn around & do the hill again.

Repeat until no longer necessary.

I think I'll just end up potzing about the Hutts tonight. So if anyone sees a black Triple being ridden by someone with a black/blue Quasi jacket, wave or better yet stop me.

In that case - look up Wainui Coast Road. Its not bad. Or cruise out to Eastbourne.

Or, do a loop of Grey's Road Pauahatanui and the Whitby Inlet.

Truth be told I'm only here until 8:10pm (the time of my flight) tomorrow and I need to have the bike returned by 6:00pm. So the chances of any sort of meaningful ride are slim to none but I'll to make the best of the time I have left.
