Fuck that, you will try to drag me out of my motel with a horse and you seem to have close calls on corners with other tourists on the wrong side of the road. For a fella that tries to avoid the tourist spots you seem to have tripped over every one of them. I will PM you my address, just send me a bottle of burbon and some fish and chip money, I promise I will think of you when I eat em........
agree re: roads not ridden. there are some roads down here that are so fucking awesome I frequently have to stop and knock one off mid-ride cos it makes me so horny
no bashing mate, your experience is your experience.
I will say though, it sounds like youve tried to meet kiwis where youre staying. if kiwis are in a motel, theyre on holiday and wanna be left alone, you wanna meet the locals, not the holidayers. get on rides, and stop everytime there's a pub or a cafe with a few bikes outside and go say hi, and join them for a few KMs, you might find theyre friendlier.
as for kiwi drivers, yeah mate, we are fucking awful our licencing system is a joke.
Enjoy the rest of your stay mate!

Thanks mate.
But I've done all those things, cafe, pubs, etc. Met a few cool riders and ridden with afew but in general like I said. Ridden with some really good riders and even got passed in the middle of a 45km curve like I was standing still, almost scraping my pegs by a girl. Thought I could ride pretty good but she showed me. Lol Also got passed by 2 guys, I'm doing about 125 and they passed and left me on their back wheels.
And yea you're drivers are bad and I come to find out you don't even have to have insurance if you don't want to, that I absolutely don't get.

One of my favorite things actually was chilling out in Oamaru for the night.
I was nice to wake in that place early in the morning and have a coffee out by the docks.
