    the guide explained how deep the snow got over winter.

    we just couldnt imagine it living in akl

    but the trip was worth it via Taieri train return

    black ice is something i have had to deal with.

    You remember correctly, not that year.

    Not that it was a race, but my two (ahem) 'wins' came on an Aprilia Caponord and a Honda Varadero. Both supremely comfortable, with great fuel range (the Honda was the injected model and could be eked out to 400km on a tank), and above average lights.

    Adventure (styled) bikes suit me the best for long distance rides.

    Used to do endurance classic car events in the UK... On navigation rallies, they would have a stop where you checked in then weren't given your next clues for another 30mins. Worked perfectly.
