Hello all,

I have just joined this site as I hope to find out about some good adventure riding in the south island.
I have moved to Christchurch from the Waikato and have left behind a DR650, which hopefully is going to be sold this weekend.

I have owned the DR for a year and ridden on the road for a few years, but have had offroad dikes for quite a while now.

I am hoping to buy a bike down in Christchurch if my DR sells,
Am looking at a KLE500 or BMW 650GS mainly, but theres a road legal KTM 525 that even though I know is terribly impractical really rakes my fancy.

Hopefully I can learn of some good rides down here by joining this forum.

Cheers,
Sam

Thanks for that, some of those trails look excellent!
Am very very keen to get into that.

I might find some decent hunting areas while I'm at it.
