    Support Breakdown in Central Otago - help please!

    SOLVED, got all I need!


    Hey folks!
    I'm stuck between Omakau and Ranfurly (40 km to Ranfurly, SH85) Loosing cooling liquid rapidly. Looks like an impact on the radiator. Anybody here nearby who has something for a quickfix? I'm thinking of coldmetal (so it is called in germany at least )
    phone 02108333965

    Heading slowly to Ranfurly, hoping I make it...Cheers Nobby

    EDIT:
    in Ranfurly at Campsite now, without overheating of the engine....
    Here are several mechanics / garages in town, one of them will be able to help me tomorrow - hopefully...

    There're a couple of bike shops with workshops in Alexandra if you need more help.

    I text him the number of Two Wheels Unlimited in Alexandra. (The Mobil station) it is 03 448 6207 should he not get the text.

    If you can't get it fixed in Ranfurly text me on 021354810 and I'll get a trailer and bring you through to Alex. Two wheels should be able to get mobile again.
