Is it suicide riding in Queenstown?

And after a nice ride it is just good to have a original french mulled wine in Arrowtowns Bonjour Cafe.

I prefer the omlette and a flat white when I check out the Gibbston Valley.

Personally , I use the car alot more in the winter. I have very early starts for work and can not be buggered spending time getting totally rugged up for the ride. Yeah, on the main routes thru the area ice will a factor not so often. Some roads they spray a chemical to stop the ice forming. Alot of other roads though can be nasty. Grit is almost as bad as ice, and grit will be everywhere. Every winter is different. Some winters are shockers with ice, some are not. It all just depends how keen you are. For me I very much appreciate the fact that I can use my car in the winter. It saves time, hassle and potential snarl ups. each to there own though!
