    Wow cool - thanks for sharing the photos they are great. A few years ago I would accuse you of doctoring the photos coz you have photos of the West Coast without pouring rain, but the last two times I been there it was glorious too!

    Thanks! We've been really lucky with the weather on the coast, on our 06 trip we rode from Westport to Jacksons Bay with sun almost all the way & not a drop of rain.

    Cheers Mate! I took most of the pics with my lil digicam, any with me in them (red jacket on KTM) were taken by my mate Mike. Neither of us are pros at all. Given a sunny day in a lot of the places we went you can point a camera almost anywhere & get a good pic!

    ADV working just fine for me.... from Chch, using Xnet ADSL.
    www.remotemoto.com - a serious site for serious ADV riders, the ultimate resource in the making.
    Check out my videos on Youtube including... the 2011 Dusty Butt 1K - Awakino Challenge and others.
