    Nope, I'm pretty sure he was under no illusions that he was clever.

    The whole "using a raro licence in NZ" think was done away with a long time ago.

    I've covered a fair few clicks in NZ on two wheels, but in the last 20 years haven't been asked for my licence yet, while out on the bike.

    In the car or truck, quite often...

    It's actually physically possible to ride without a valid licence.

    12 months from entering NZ. If you leave and re-enter, you have 12 months don't you...

    I posted this thread, I did not find one straight answer to my question. I asked my Kiwi colleague to read it in case i misunderstood the replies because of culture difference and English not being my first language. He told me that most of the replies is sarcastic, which surpised and alarmed me because in South Africa only women is allowed to use sarcasm.

    I'm not sure on the international license jazz, but you can use to to jump from no license to your full TEST (you still have to pass). It's well documented. Look it up before confusing people with incorrect info.
