Ōhope Beach, in New Zealand’s Bay of Plenty, is a destination that combines riding and scenery in a spectacular way. The coastal road offers flowing sections, sea air and constant views over the ocean, with an atmosphere made for a ride away from the usual routes.
For Italian riders, it is the kind of trip worth adding to the list: nature, light traffic and a relaxed pace. It is not a place for speed, but for enjoying every bend, with the pull of a coast that still feels authentic.
