The totally insignificant Subway tour of New Zealand and a V Strom

[Waihou Thumper]

I guess the idea is this....
A little while ago I subscribed to a website and answered seemingly random surveys about all and sundry...
Well, scroll on a few weeks, months and I have amassed over $160 worth of vouchers to spend eating anything from one of our beloved fast food franchises....

He he....
Now, this is where it gets interesting....
I propose that we get a photo of the bike in front, inside out out by the dumpster, don't care.. and post it to the site here.



Now, of course there are some of these branches smack bang in the middle of town....
I am not looking for a photo and that's it! This is after all and adventure riding site, so to post here you have ridden somewhere and can prove it with photos and either before or after have to get some breakfast, lunch or dinner

Now, there are 230 restaurants? ....(haha) and well spread throughout New Zealand...
Here is what you have to do...

1. Take a photo of the Bike outside Subway, inside, any way you can with the logo present as proof, better still, with you in it or the foot long or the 6 inch ...
2. Tell us what you had there....always a good thing to mention how the food was and whether you said ' hold the olives or pepper as I have a sensitive gut'
3. Mention the ride you did to get there with the route, including photos to make it worthwhile....
4. Take a nice photo of you scoffing the substance you purchased, be it a cookie or the foot long!

So, we will see and as there a great deal of places to eat, buy and photograph, this should provide some cool, random photos of eating, buying and of course arranging your meal to provide 'US' with a good view....

Let's see......what happens..

(By the way, I am not affiliated with the above, just thought it would be fun...

Lol funnily enough I have recently had a few epic rides to get subway... No pics though.



I did a 5 hour ride our to kawhia, did a big loop around to the waitomo caves, found some gravel and ended up at subway otorohanga.



Then just this week I planned on riding to a mates drinks in Tauranga. Saw the bike sitting there with a tank bag with a change of clothes, decided "fuck it" and put the tail bag on with a tent and sleeping bag, off to the cape. Stopped for gas a couple times, decided to stay in kawakawa the night and had subway for dinner.



After the cape the next day, I did maunamuka gorge a couple times, stopped at a little town, pulled out my phone and looked for a route to a random town for the nights stay. My phone told me to go to state highway 1, then turn back off it to head towards dargaville..... Fuck that, there's a shorter route there, and it's twistier.... Plus it was fucking hot and the road was called Lake rd..... Turned out to be 10km of the roughest gravel I've ever ridden. Usually I'm good for 70-80km/h comfortably on straights and about 30-50 in corners. On Lake rd I barely got into second gear and was lucky to see 40km/h on the straights. Again subway and a tent for the night.
