    We went through Moleworth 2 days ago. Ranger said there had been 20mm of rain, and they were hoping to keep it open for "another few weeks" so could be dodgy for Feb unless they get more. So start doing rain dances.

    So I have half an eye on this thread too, perhaps Shrek you could PM me the address of the accommodation. I expect to be at work until around 9:30pm on the Tuesday and will make my final decision earlier that day.

    Cromwell > Geraldine > Woodend Beach > Hamner > Molesworth > Taylors > Blenheim > Rainbow > Hamner > Greymouth > Haast > Cromwell - 1,800kMs all up - very good - Rainbow's the best IMHO, even at $10 a shot.

    The run down the coast was pretty damned good too - awesome place - pity about the seal though ...

    Go forth and ride m'hearties.

    I am potentially keen to come along for the ride. I assume you will be stopping for gas half way round? Like Transalper I will decide closer to the time depending on how busy work is.

    Pretty ??? downright plug-ugly I'd say ... and then there's the bike!

    Here's the view I got ... it's amazing what some shiny plastic and a few baubles can do to a man's mind ... and then there's the extra fuel tank ... oh me oh my - CD in the post tomorrow Pete

    ciao

    Sounds good... count me in for the ride also possibly a dead cert for the overnight stay in Hanmer. Will pm shrek with confirmation. Any ideas as to the route change if molesworth is closed.
