Fantastic stuff there Banditrider.

Some of your ride isn't that far from Rahotu where some of my family reside. Very interesting countryside.

A 1400 cc adventure bike .. :eek: I bet it's an adventure on some of those roads eh!

Thanks for sharing. :chug:

The Connie is a big pussy cat that'll take on anything- well, nearly anything...

Thats the one, but I think that was before she took over. It was run by some Harley lovers that renamed it the Narley Hog. Business faltered and they moved on.
The pub has had a spruce up and returned to its former self.
It'll have a cafe as well from next month I believe.
Lovely part of the world there. :chug:
