    Central Otago in Feb

    gidday, new guy here from the naki, found this site, looks good, planning (another )2 weeks down south probly first or second week Feb to include Molesworth, Haka Valley, Danseys, Paerau Styx, Thomsons Track ,Milford sound, Mavora lakes, Nevis and rainbow. Bit of looping back and forwards and not in that order.
    Probly 14 to 16 days. Anyone got enough time off to tag along.??? Got p....d off with standard Bridgestone duals on the gravel last year so run on TKC 80's all the time now.
    Budget motels or country pubs are the go, I'm past the tent.

    Hey Young1 with the 990, are you the old guy that lead the adventure ride to Waitomo?? or is there another 990 floating round the naki I havn't seen?

    been over some awesome gravel roads in a rental last few weeks, trip will still include plenty tarseal, just a general good look round with plenty gravel thrown in in Central Otago. Any southerners with hot tips on gravel rides in Central most welcome.

    Welcome to KB!
    Thinking about a pootle down that way over the break. Feb is a bit late for my time schedule though.

    Hope the trip goes well!
