🚛 A little bit of classic truck history in Paihia! 🚛

It’s been great having some of the crew taking part in the 2026 North of the North Long Lap, organised by Northern Classic Commercials, staying with us over the past two days.

With around 75 classic commercial trucks travelling around Northland, it’s certainly been something special to see these old beauties out on the road — and even better to have a few parked up here at Gateway Motel! 😊

Thanks for choosing to stay with us at Bay of Islands Gateway Motel & Apartments. We hope you’ve enjoyed your time in the Bay of Islands.

Safe travels to Northern Classic Commercial Long Lap NZ as you head for the Cape today and enjoy the rest of the Long Lap! 👋🚚
