Day 12 Ashley is here! There are no snakes in NZ. Fun facts from George! If you think that is odd, there are also No Doritios here either. Sad , I know, or Dr. Pepper. BUT doritos are coming.... the Kiwis are so not ready for the epic dorito revolution. We had a great ride today. Mostly sunny and warm. We rode thru the most epic mountains We've ever seen and even took a short walk to some awesome limestone rock formations. When we finally got to the glaciers...

NZ Day 11 Has it only been 11 days? God it feels like more. I had an epic ride today. It started out a bit cool. the air had a bite to it, even under my leather gloves. But by mid-day it warmed up nicely. about 84 right now. Awesome! Today we rode the legendary lewis pass from Reefton to Christchurch.

Day 8 Rain rain go away Today was a bit of a lame boring ride, and I kind of knew it would be. it seemed my motorbike map did not have any epic routes to get to Wellington, which is the southern most city in the north island. And to top it off, it was cloudy and rainy today, so the ride into town was a drag. i did get to go out this evening, and meet a friend of a friend of a friend. I met Dave through my friend Brad, and he had recently moved to NZ about 4 mo...
