Re: junkmanjoe adventures MID WINTER MADNESS RIDE
We rode in the rain, frezzeing cold wind, sleet, and snow.
friday morn i set out north to taupo, meet some of the gang at ashurst.
notice the rain covers on, they where there for a reason...
we headed off north through back gravel and seal roads,towards taupo.
a few slips on the roads so care was needed.
was some great view along the way
we arived at the pub on the napier taupo road, aprox 4:30pm friday.
a great meal and beers, bikers chat till late.
we woke to a frosty fine start, and on the road at 8am
through taupo forest roads heading for huiarau range
had to watch out for wild horses,
heading towards the lake waikaremoana, with all the rain made some great water falls.
stop off at the lake, top up fuel tanks, and eat all the pies in the shop..i mean all the pies...
a little further up the road we stoped for one last look over the lake...great place.
part two to come later.
