I saved up and brought myself Wally (my van) in May 2022. I worked 6-day weeks to save up some travel money and left for my solo adventure on my 20th birthday! I got home a few days before Christmas and sold my van not long after, for the same price I brought it for. All in all it was an awesome trip I will never forget!

He arrived in New Zealand December 1988 after spending a year traveling the coastline of Australia, working his way up the East coast with a circus, setting up their equipment. He arrived in Wellington and met us at a Bikers Rights Meeting. Staying at mine while he waited for his transport to arrive by ship from OZ. That made for an interesting Christmas as LeRoy regaled us with stories of his travels (and my daughter was born Xmas Day). The camper trailer opens out on both sides giving plenty of room to sleep and lots of storage space. The bike is a Suzuki 850, not available in New Zealand. We got the baby brother 750. We spent many hours on the road traveling NZ and attending motorbike rallies that were popular in the 80s and 90s. Le Roy had the distinction of being the ONLY person to have attended the Northern- and Southern-most bike rallies in the world with the Brass Monkey being in Central Otago. We travelled light with only the essentials. Although we camped along the way we did not consider ourselves as campers but as riders or bikers, as opposed to the patched bikies. We camped responsibly, leaving no trace. How times have changed. Now we would need Le Roy’s trailer to carry the toilet.

Situated right on the banks of the Waikato River, 2 mins off SH 1 it is the perfect stop whether you’re heading north or south.

Choose to park up in the front with a view of the lake or at the back against the hills with sheep over the fence. There is room for every type of vehicle, but if you want a front row spot arrive earlier rather than later and you can spend the evening watching all the action on the water.

BUY PDF CONTENTS Spring 2023 ISSUE 5 Up Cooking with fire Jonathan Collins NZ Fun Adventures was pleased to see so many outdoor enthusiasts join with us for this, now annual, event in our events calendar. Cooking with Fire or bbq outdoors was all it took to encourage families, pros and 1st time outdoor cooks to give it a try. We had some of the people camp with us for the weekend as well which is always a great way to get to know people in our group. Our very own celebrity master chef Lance was a great asset to have on site as well to help the cooks expand on their own meals and techniques. We look forward to seeing what everyone brings to the table for the next round. Hit us up on Facebook if you want to know more, and check for new events, there is plenty planned through to the end of the year. Or contact Jonathan Collins who would love to invite you along.
