    Easy peasy. Y'can't go wrong.

    You already know how to get onto the Southern.

    Just beetle down there , take the Otahuhu turnoff. hang a right , and then wiggle left. A couple of lefts and a right or two , you'll be at the top of the Gt South Rd, by the monument (dude on a horse). Just outside where Mr Lange's father used to doctor, can't miss it. You used to go right there, but they've buggered it about , so now you have to go down the hill a bit, toward where the first Foodtown store used to be, then a right. Carry on , past where Lincoln Traders used to be , leftish past Otahuhu College, and follow your nose. A few lefts and rights , just keep on, past the speed camera, and keep right on going past where the picture theatre used to be (it's something else now).

    The odd left and right , just wiggle about , and follow your nose.

    Look for the big tree by the old church , you can't miss it.

    Hang a left a bit after that and follow your nose straight ahead.

    Domestic terminal straight on (well, not quite straight on, cos then you'd end up on the runway!). Car park on the left, with a wiggle.

    Back to the Southern , there's lots of options, but probably best just to go back the way you came, just watch out cos if you're not really careful you end up back in West Auckland.

    You can't go wrong, just follow the directions.

    He can't possibly get lost if he follows my directions. I follow my directions, and I never get lost.

    Not trying to be funny, but you sure that's a good idea?

    Not very confident on the new bike, you got pillion experience dan? Mind you, it'll be a fairly slow pace, but that can be harder with a pillion than shifting it.

    Also, you get to find new and exciting roads to ride that otherwise would have been missed!
