Royal Enfield Himalayan - Road Trip to Coromandel Part 1

Hey riders, I'm of on another road trip! This time it's to the Coromandel where I'll be attending the New Zealand Royal Enfield Owners Register's annual rally.
The day starts out raining and the forecast is for rain all day, so it's on with the wet weather gear and off we go!

That was an early start, I know Kawakawa Bay quite well, the mother n law lives out there, I use to get serious FOMO watching all the bikes go past when we were visiting. Theat slip looked like it was ready to go again with all that rain! Looks like a great trip, cheers brother
