Cape Reinga

I have been on a week’s motorcycling trip to the northernmost point in New Zealand, namely Cape Reinga. My friend Neil accompanied me as far North as Auckland and joined up with me on the way back to Wellington by way of Piha. The trip was originally going to be just a long weekend up to Hamilton to watch the V8 racing there, but as tends to happen, things quickly spiraled out of control.

An eventful trip featuring baby sitting, punctures, caramel macchiato and some seriously bad navigation.
This is as far North as you can go in New Zealand without getting wet.

Yours truly at Cape Reinga.
