Well done that man :)

Although its looking from Springs Junction westwards toward Reefton

Discovered this beauty last weekend

Even covered in gravel it was magic - down through the Beech forest with the sun's rays glancing through the remnants of the morning mist. Just magic :)

The sort of road you turn around and do again (and again) just for the hell of it. I'm going to have to go nail it again this summer

So what's your best road, then?
