Hi, I know there are probably plenty of threads on here about different best rides, but I am lazy, and want it handed to me.
The situation.......
I have seen bugger all of this country, yet since I bought a bike 5 months ago, I seen heaps (ish). I've been in NZ for 10 years and seen more in the last 5 months, on KB rides, then the rest of the time I've been here.
So, anyone that know's me, or has read my posts, or my profile, knows I'm a devorcee, and have to pay the X bucket loads. So, it is starting to get to me, so am thinking of an NZ tour. Working this and that on the way (don't want to rip the govt or anything), use the cash I have to come back and see the kids, but generally, take a year off, meet as many KBers as I can, and ride "the" roads of NZ.
How can you help?
To make a go of this, I need to have at least a rough idea of what I'm gunna do, and when. I need maps, routes, companions and essentially at least a rough plan. I want to see the country by means of a bunch of the best day trips in each area.
So, to help, post here your pick of the rides in your individual area, and help me make the most of the time.
Cheers
Ozzie!
PS. For the sensitive ones amoungst us, I am still planning to look after my responsabilities, just not give the IRD more than I have to, and enjoy a bit of my time on here and finally see a bit of the place I have chosen as my home.
