Yes...I understand so.

From memory the narrative went something like "......speeding car smoking through dust cloud and rammed up the back of the stems unit on Goudies.....went ~ 7 metres up the stems till it hit the back of the truck. Car driver and passenger bailed out, with most serious injury being a broken arm. Truck driver knew nothing until a truck passing in the opposite direction called him on the R/T and said you got summink hanging on behind you......truck had travelled 2 or 3 km by that point, I recall. Someone went back and found the 'victims' on the side of the road.

A case perhaps of the truth being stranger than fiction...?

With respect, confused, I'd suggest.

'Million Dollar road' is Bonish Rd, which goes from Kaingaroa to McKee Rd, which goes to Kawerau. All sealed.

Goudies and High Level run between SH 38 and SH 5. Part sealed, but mostly unsealed last time I drove it, but that was some time ago.

Apart from not wanting to bend it when you've decided to take a break and leaned it up against a handy tree, how are you finding it???
