johnnyfive 7,848 Report post Posted November 4, 2018 Ok, entries close tonight I reckon. Hopefully everyone is in that intended to. I took a nosey over the Motu road this morning (day 1 morning), it's quite manageable. Quite a few spots of small debris etc, and some short sections where the road surface is carved into a rock face and a bit uneven. One slip that is easily navigated (should be fine for most standard height cars). Pretty much your standard middle of nowhere gravel road for the Motu section. As long as everyone rides to their ability and keeps left where possible it'll be fine. I encountered one vehicle on the lower section and a gang of mountain bikers. 11 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
