    The first of two 60 minute programes air on the Travel Channel 9.30pm Sunday 29th May. The trailer looks like it will be a good watch. Fingers crossed anyway.

    Just saw bits of the Top of the South one on one of the crap closeup thingies (moustache man).

    When they get to Pelorus, the camera stops juuuuust before the NADS* & EddieB get on film
    Were were lined up here...

    We'd just gone over the Maungatapu and had an icecream and were ready to leave. The look as he rode in and saw us was one of total envy.
