Guess what's at no. 2.

Anyone here ridden any of these roads??

I wonder who wrote this...

Tour highlight: The road from Te Anau to Queenstown is the best part of the trip, as it meanders through lakes, mountain sides and coastline, culminating in a ride along the coast of the Tasman Sea

Last time I went from Te Anau to Queenstown, it was an inland road

Has something new been built in the last 10 months?

[cowboyz]

not to mention.. what are you doing anywhere near Queenstown on a trip from Christchurch to Auckland? That is some bad navigating

[limbimtimwim]

hour-long ferry

Erm. No.

What are you doing reading such a high-class website anyway? :-)

It's my favourite site.

AAwww, they didn't include the Coro Loop as number one.

But this would have been reported as an Alpine Pass route that included a 5 min boat ride from Auckland to Great Barrier

Have to admit the Black forest is the biz. Some of those Alpine passes make me damp too.

Pity I did them in a car and not a bike.

Is it just me or did any one else think this thread was going to be dirty?

Nope.... just me then

Sorry you're dissapointed. If it's any consolation, I think Fatjim is just a tad damp...

[Jantar]

I believe that the route described starts in Christchurch, heads down the center to Te-Anau and Milford, then up to Queenstown, Wanaka and the west coast, Nelson, Picton.

I do want to try out that one hour ferry ride though.

In today's grammar lesson, folks, we will learn about ------ homonyms.

And, oddly , they have nothing to do with gay nyms . Etymology is for the advanced classes though.

This public service message brought to you by BOTTYNZ - beware of imitations.

No, That would be confusing them with homonymphs.

[Ixion]

No such thing, all nymphs was decided heterosexual , the bonking target of the satyrs. (And the less said about *them* the better).

After all, I should know. Should have stuck with nymphs and left bloody clouds strictly alone.

I've been over the Dolomites mentioned at No.10 but, sadly, not on two wheels.
Older brother worked for an Austrian company that organised tours over some of those roads which, although full of some awesome tight twisties and breath-taking vistas, were in pretty rough condition last I saw (about 3 years ago). Must be better now...
