Some more photos.....I know its boats but we used our scooter to get there and back.
We kicked off from home at 7.45 on a crisp but clear day. Stopped at Paeroa for a stretch. Been a while since the boss lady has been on the bike. Battled the  motorway traffic..... before finally arriving at the Auckland Viaduct Harbour around 10.30, we clocked up 485 kms today so not a bad run. Got home in the dark at 8.00pm, lots of bikes on the road. Just a great day for it.
Loving the new tyres, bike ran like a charm.....of course !!

I think Red Biker was there in his boat, it was black so must have been him .
