    Oh right! These guys would be riding black Speed Triple's.

    Casual cruise as I'm in no hurry to get home.

    I'm allowed out! 2 days in row. (less painful). Can we detour right 5mins at Te Uri to pick up my sunglasses from friends house / possible coffee.

    Sweet!!!! A plan is forming. Should be the last run on CuBiXs front tyre. It's pretty well buggered.

    yeah it sure was ... apart from a mob of sheep being moved just after the sweepers .. they never had someone at the front of the mob & come around a slight bend, a few of the front riders had to hit the picks hard to avoid them .. but one decided to take on the buell .. credit though he managed to lay the bike down in the grass and use the sheep to cushion the bike .. both him & R fine though and buell only appears to have a bit of surface scrapings & bent brake lever (so far)

    so thats Buell 1 sheep 0

    Sounds like fun times up there Sorry about that icket Al!

    Well we had another amazing day. Wanaka to Queenstown via the Crown range - awesome! Brilliant weather all the way. Then Queenstown Te Anau, nice wee ride although not as spectacular.

    Then, god. Te Anau to Milford!!! Now THIS is a road, bloody hell, one of the best rides around. Good sweepers, really tight mountain trails, surrounded by AWESOME scenes!!!

    Homer tunnel's a breeze, well it was today and Milford itself is out of this world in terms of stunning geography.

    Flew in there a few years back, but NOTHING beats getting there by bike.

    10 out of 10 easily
    It's only Rock and Roll but I like it

    Thought you might like it. Definitely one of my favourites, just a shame it's so out of the way - although you have to do it both ways or you're stuck there I 'spose. Magic!
