Glad you liked the road Parksey!

But the best road I know of is Ohautira Rd that runs from Waingaro Springs toward Raglan. Add this to SH58 back to Tuakau and you've got a great day out.

Nice ride and the sky sure is purdy! 

Very little traffic on that road and real lucky that truck was on the Wrong side of the road Also or there could have been Big problems!!!   :laughing6-hehe:

Watch out for the dingo's mate!  :beer:

Nice ride and thanks for sharing the clip... what exhaust do you have on your 5th gen?

Ohautira here I come. Talked to a mate who knew it and he agreed with you. He also knows some great roads in a wide area around Whananaki. They've done a lot of sealing of those roads over the years. Was thereabouts years ago and remember feeling carsick - and I was driving. Will check those out too and maybe I can reciprocate on the tips. Cheers.

I'm running a Delkevic 450mm Tri-oval stainless steel pipe without the db killer.

Please let me know what you find.

I do venture North/West of the Bridge occasionally, but usually end up doing a loop from Huapai, up Old North Rd, then Peak Rd to Kaukapakapa, up SH16 then turn off onto West Coast Rd right through to Warkworth. The fine day traffic on to Matakana can be painful but keep on to Leigh, then revel in good empty windy roads to Pakiri, marred only by a couple of km of gravel. Then a fine, fine road to Wellsford, then back south on SH16.

Another good road that I have played on in the car is the road to Kawhia; there's no good loop, but it was a good blast.

If I see any dingos then you can be sure I have made a Major Navigational Error.
