I wish we could all just take responsibility for our own actions. Shame we don't have the rights of access legislation the old UK has. things like RUPPs (road used as public path) and bridleways are gold. Basically, once something has been deemed a road, it will always be a legal road. If you chose ...

I spend most of my life in a "low rage"

This is another of my "subscribed" channels on youtube. Keep it up

for that amount of water, everything is surprisingly clean!

And I've seen 'em doing that too!

And if scaffold pipe, then isn't this seamed? S good for most stuff but not a cage.

Just grind the galv off where you're welding.

Almost intelligable poms playing in a quarry called the flappits.
All dirty old landies and range rovers.

You have to remember in pommy land 20mm of snow will close the roads.

and rightly so landrovers will get stuck in less than that

Yup, too many toyotas blocking the way

How long does it usually take to drive the length of the traverse? It took us 3.5 hours one-way with a couple of snack/photo breaks. About the same time as a mountain bike then :wink: You wouldn't have a head-on, as they all go from the plateau down to Owhango, apart from 2 hills it feels as if you...

Neither, no interest beyond wanting to get in there. I did it as a bike ride 2 months back. Was also using it as a reccy to see what the hype was about. I've wanted to do the West side for a while. What got me, was anytime that you could look back at the track where there had been a slip (and the sl...

Ive got the fast find from smart marine for $529 http://www.fastfindplb.com/en/ Was keen on the ACR but as I'm trail running or Mountain biking, and the thing will be thrown in and out of bags over the next ten years. I wasn't keen on the ACRs external arial. It's a ribbon that wraps around the body...

That was great.

You have to remember in pommy land 20mm of snow will close the roads.

And although impossible to prove, just about all the slips on the western side lie approx 100 below all the logging operations. So would it be fair to say that after 80 odd years, the track only became unusable after they logged the hilltops?

I rode this on my MountainBike in Feb. On the Matamata side, the forestry area has completely cut away the track. The new roads have dug away the track and left 10m bluffs to the extent that it's single file walking. Are there any plans to relocate this km of track or are the forestry going to re-in...

I give up

Been sorting the delica for summer camping trips. Replaced fuel pump seals New glow plugs, injectors on way. Took caps off rad and water blasted fins clean. Only about a quarter were free of gunk. Have a td04 rebuild kit coming too, intercooler and intake pretty oily. that'll be next weekend. Diff b...

sure picked up some speed

Wish I thought of tapping into forums and local knowledge when I came out.
what a great way to get the most out of your hols.

Where about in the souwest are you from? I'm an Exeter boy, then fled west before moving down here.

Hi, from warkworth

Not into hardcore 4wd, but keen to explore on easier routes and unformed roads for day-trips and adventures.
Have a Delica with 31's set-up for camping etc.
Having biked the 42nd a few times, I reckon it may be do-able sometime in Jan during dry weather, any advice?

Anyone?

I've mtb'd this a couple of times, keen to drive it and earn some karma points by doing my bit on the clearing.

Either coming along with someone else or dragging my Delica down?
