[Bing Bong]

Has anybody cycled the track from Wakaohora to Mangapurua landing over the Bridge to Nowhere ? If so , what was the track like?

Can you tell me why this is a crazy question? Why would I look at your Strava? Are we all not new members at some point?
But thanks for the advice and words of encouragement from an old member.

I've got some friends in NZ who are about to start a 3 month sabbatical (lucky sods), I'm going to recommend that trail to them.

Sadly amongst a group of friendly, knowledgeable people this place has the odd sad case who believe it's there job to police the internet.

Wasn't trying to police anything. We've been getting a lot of random questions from new members that never come back after the initial question. This one seemed quite random as we are a UK forum.

Are you that surprised so many people don't come back ?

Thanks for the replies and help. Got a ten week trip planned in NZ and just trying to fine tune one or two sections. Thought a post on the " Touring and adventure cycling" page might throw up some helpful advice, nice to see the majority of members are willing to help others. Cheers.
