Full marks to your brother, well done, I met 2 gorgeous swedish girls a few years ago who were doing similar on 2 scoots, they had already done most of the eastern side of Aussie and were heading for Uluru when I met them, bloody nutters if you ask me, but gotta salute the spirit.
Quiet Woman Way, is that the one that has a cemetary at the end?

Hats off to this fella, his backside must have been sore by the end.

That is one awesome journey! Jeez - there's some in the touring forum who haven't made that kind of distance on their tricked-out super-tourers!

Riding Christchurch to Queenstown on a ET3 Vespa I was surprised and delighted by how much more there was to take in along the way at max 80kph. I imagine your bro got a real eyeful of the scenery at 60 or so. I bet he had less fuel concerns than me with his mega economy too.![]()

Insert witticism.
I would so love to do something like this. maybe a group ride.
Although I'm sure my dodgy 50cc would crap out 1/2 way![]()
Yeah I've been thinking about doing a mass-scooter ride as well. Probably do the West Coast SI, maybe Caitlins, because Canterbury plains at 60 would be pretty monotonous. How long did it take him to complete this trip?
I wanna do this nowmy start planing this for my next hoilday but how do you de restricted a scooter lol im not going the whole way 50mph
