A few pics from a Surfing mission in the Surf (NZ)

[bener]

Really cool surf spot called Shipwreck Bay (or Ahipara) - in the far north of New Zealand. A fairly easy drive around the rocks - the further around you go, the bigger the surf gets... Just a few pics from my phone.

Beautiful area.
Do you rinse the salt off the truck after such excursions?

Nice pics. One of these days I'm going to make a trip to NZ, and tour as much of the Country as possible, by Motorcycle.

Yeah I'm not really sure what to do about that, we all drive on the wrong side to so it kind of works... Haha.

Yep it is one of the best on a good day, we had wild southerly winds that day. It cleans up super nice in the right conditions

Absolutely, the salt and sand is a major issue here,lots of beach driving equals extreme potential for rust! Working on some fender extensions and mud flaps to help contain it, got front done today pics to come...

That will be well worth doing but you will have to be prepared for the crazy nz roads and drivers!

Definitely some good waves to be had over here, swell is more consistent in winter but the weather gets super nice in summer... Flick me a message if you ever do, I have the best spots sorted here in the north.
