hey all
I'm heading down to Wellington on monday (from auckland) and going to be visiting a friend in Wanganui on the way down, just wondering which is the fastest route going down?
Google Maps say go via Te Kuiti and follow Sh4 into Wanganui but I remember the last time I traveled that road it was really slow and winding. Other idea is follow Sh1 down to Bulls then sort of head backwards up the road to Wanganui.

Thanks in advance.
