Akaroa Highway got boring on a bike about 15years ago for me, ended up being more fun to drift around the corners in an old series 3 lwb land-rover than to be continually stuck behind slow cars on a bike, at least with the landy, they got out of the way really fast.
But I guess its the only road close enough for some of us chch riders
To be old and wise, first you must be young and stupid.
how do you get stuck behind a car on a bike.?? twist the throttle and buzz past them,
and come on father time you aint drifting shit around the hills in any old land rover. the bikes you were riding 15 years ago have nothing on what we get to ride now so ya can see why the hills and bendy bits are so much fun for us young wipper snappers.
and if you wednesday night riders didnt ride such peices of shit you would like the hills to and not always ride boring straight roads to the huranuni for pizza.. lol,
im just saying.........
well, if you can talk shit why cant I......and as for my bike, fuck, its 33 in 6 weeks, still can pull 140mph+ still capable of 12 sec, standing 1/4 mile..... but it cant stop for shit, cant corner very well, still, does not need a computer to keep running, can be fixed in the side of the road with a screwdriver and a 6" creasant. Starts regaurdless of the tempurature outside.
mmmmm Ms thinks You would fall off it if you ever managed to throw a leg over it, Dont think you could handle a spaghetti chassis.
As for drifting in a lwb landy? toss a 350ci chev in one, then have some fun.
Looking forward to the KB, rally at Ettrick this summer, come down with us rossi, they always a good fun weekend for seasoned riders.

Aside from the fact that that particular road is not particularly Ambo and Fire truck friendly ...( but you would know that if you ever rode it) so it would be doubtful if either could catch up with Shrek ... even at their speed, but if they could ... I'm guessing the flashing lights would be seen with the "Who and what the are" obvious early in the piece. Giving Shrek and his Mrs plenty of time to get out of their way.
When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...
