    Smile motorradnomaden - we are new

    Hi there,

    we are absolutely new here and just want to let you know, we are travelling with our 2 XT 600 Tenere around the world.
    We are from Germany.
    And we will probably be in NZ at the end of this year or beginning next year.
    Maybe we we meet one or the other down there??

    Here are some stories and pictures from our tour, which took us so far through Africa and Asia

    From 1998 - 2000 we travelled already from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego.

    Hi Raleva. You've picked a good country to tour in, that's for sure.

    Having just watched a documentary on the History Channel about D-Day, it reminded me of the Grandfather I never got to know as he lost his life at Normandy. It got me thinking about Germany and recent history.

    I'd like to take this opportunity to ask you a question. Under the circumstances, I can understand that you may find my question difficult to answer as I am sure it will stir up some emotions. I am not trying to offend you or your country in any way so please don't take this the wrong way, but what is it with David Hasselhoff?

    Bwahahaha

    Anyway, enjoy your trip around NZ, if you find yourself in CHCH and feel like a ride around the bays, send us a PM.

    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Welcome to kiwibiker, hope you enjoy your travels. post again when you have details of the dates you will be in NZ. You will probably meet many of us on your travels.

    A picture from their travels that i thought was pretty funny...
    Has anyone else done big trips like that?
    THe plan at the moment is for me and some mates to go to australia when we are done with uni and ride round there for a month or so... Seems to me to be a fairly cool way to spend a month. What bike would suit this? Any tips or things that anyone thinks i should know?

    These turkey's don't speak German. E-Mail me when in Napier and we can eat rotten cabbage and watch Baywatch videos.



    You will love New Zealand, we have a beautiful country with awesome roads for biking. The locals sometimes have a good sense of humor also.

    Thumbs up

    Hi there,

    - thanx for all your fast answers!!

    - we will let you know, when we will arrive in NZ.
    - We heard it is the best with a bike to arrive in Christchurch??!!

    - thanx for your hospitality!!

    - nice to remind us, that we are germans!
    I (Ralf) am just brave enough (with 40 years) to wear a german footballshirt without thinking I am a nazi!!

    - David was very popular in Germany thats right.
    But let us talk about the good things and let see what happens in the world cup!!
    Best wishes - Ralf & Eva

    Motorradnomaden are starting through

    Hi There,

    after 1 months of waiting and repairing our bikes in Christchurch, we are nearly ready to travel in New Zealand.
    I have a new engine in my Tenere now!! :-)
    Evas fork is now leaking, so we still have something to do! :-(

    It looks like we are starting on Tuesady to the south of the South Island.

    Our trip will finish at the 12th of Mai in Auckland, from where we will fly the bikes to Athens in Greece.
    We like to travel then back home on our bikes through Europe
    Best wishes - Ralf & Eva
