Sealed all the way! Very nice, I love that road, but haven't done it for a long time, hunted off it too, there used to be a lot of deer about as well...... It's on my list again for when I next up North. Thanks for the video. 😎
@DustyVisorMotorcycles Thanks for watching our video, yes I'm sure you should do it again now, will be a completely different ride for you now, but just as enjoyable I bet.
The Gentle Annie road has a terrible reputation -- at least from the 50's, 60's & 70's. It was unsealed, very twisty, and had plenty of bad spots. I drove over it in in the summer of about 2005 from Hawkes Bay to Taihape. By then, the greater part of it was sealed and the rest was a fairly decent unsealed surface. I enjoyed the then very easy drive.
Great Job, loved the commentary and the places you go are so exciting, bring on more adventures, love to see them.
I rode it on my xj600 some years ago prior to sealing. It was in great condition
Mangaweka has my brother too. Cheers.
Learnt to ski on the Gentle Annie round Ngamatea when the road was closed...good times!!

Great ride. Ridden through the Annie a couple of times in DEEP snow.
@@dennishardy4402 Thanks, that sounds crazy mate!
Great video , but sometimes the music overpowers the audio commentary. Just a heads up!
@johnturnbull8573 Thanks for the feedback, will aim to improve
