Really thoughtful of you . . .

Ice! This time of the year.

There's nothing like those Sth island roads. Good to see you smiling Felix. How can you not when riding around those lakes.

My turn in a few days. Time to test the 675s touring ability...not flash I suspect.

The last one would have to be close to Cromwell that's for sure! Have a look at the attachment.

The Yellow lines is Cromwell and the White are Lake Hawea...

Edit: And that's some awesome photos! I should go for a nice ride this weekend - but I'm tempted to spend my Saturday yachting from Lyttleton to Port Levy :) Might sneak in some riding before we leave though...
I like it where you give the cyclist the learn. ;)

Oh that is so very beautiful...I profoundly dislike you guys now! :laugh:

The air is so very clear in the South Island...007XY and i were down there last January for our honeymoon, and honnestly, I din't want to leave :no:

The Lake Tekapo one is just magic...very envious of you guys!

Looks great Felix. I was down that way this time last year and had a great time riding through those roads. Did you go to the Burt Munro rally?
