Can I ask for reposts of what will work for others please, stay the Nov. weekend, Go to the Dec one.

This is one of my favourite drives, some of the best and most deserted roads for a driver!
Hawkswood hillclimb is on the weekend of the 24th and 25th of November, great wee detour and only a couple of kms of the planned route. but also the Super Tourers are on at Ruapuna,
Keep posting your interest up, lets find a date that works.[/color]

Who is keen?
Which weekend would suit most?
This is a one day cruise, so could be a Saturday or a Sunday depending on interest.

Attractions at the end are:
The Go Kart track at Kaikoura,
Baby seals at the waterfall 20km north of Kaikoura
and the scenic beauty all around.

These roads are empty, I think last time we met maybe 5-6 cars (apart from when we were on SH1) and those that went had a ball.
Post up here if you want this to happen, I have done it the past 2 years and really enjoyed it.
Check out the link not the best quality but gives you an idea of how interesting and quiet the roads are. We didn't get any footage of the Narly stuff, the co-driver wasn't up to it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dro0xcB2Jjc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
