An awesome day out with the Triumph Riders Waikato.
Down to Taupo and back up again. 380 Km's door to door for me.
Hamilton Saturday 9.00 AM.
We head South to Te Awamutu to Trevor Hall M/C's
Trevor has lots of nice bikes here, a Vincent Engine in a Norton Feather Bed chassis for example.
Off South to Maraetai Dam.
Then South East out to Lake Taupo.
The road out here to Taupo from the West was amazing, those Guys on their Sport Bikes did reasonably well to arrive within not too much time after Grunta and I.
Grant is on the 1050 Sprint.
North from Taupo by about 16Km's we got to the Aratiatia Dam that had opened the flood gates just before we arrived.
Before and after the gates being closed.
All of sudden everything went quiet and with in five minutes the water level had dropped dramatically.
