shit thats some photo! from a phone?
Yeah just a point and click with my iPhone, NZ is pretty photogenic. Trails are good on Te Mata Peak but fairly limited, amazing to have right on my doorstep though. I'm originally from Manchester, UK and would need to drive for an hour or two to get to comparable terrain and it would often be muddy. We've got some new trails being built in Eskdale - the cyclone wiped out the original ones. For the really good stuff I drive to Taupo or Rotorua.shit thats some photo! from a phone?
edit - also what are the trails like up there?
Oh know that!Yeah just a point and click with my iPhone, NZ is pretty photogenic
Jeepers those photos are incredible. North Island is gorgeous but South Island just leaves you in awe. Hawkes Bay is a pretty nice place, I used to live up north in Mangawhai and preferred the coastline up there. Climate here is better though and more hills for mountain biking.Oh know that!

Not got up to Hawkes Bay yet though, only been in NZ 20 years myself...![]()
Stop lying, you'd be wearing your orange Boiler Suit so they can find you in the trees not long after the start!That would be me
I went to Aberdeen Uni and for the first three days I never understood a single word the locals spoke! Became a natural with Doric after a short period, 15 years...Yes Aberdeen accent can be hard . Even worse on a phone call I imagine haha .
Well Buckie Doric would be more unintelligible , Fraserburgh is even worse. Lugs, spavers ,switie oxters you kenfitaneanminI went to Aberdeen Uni and for the first three days I never understood a single word the locals spoke!

Don't know many from Gamrie lovely setting down there though. Used to say there were more millionaires per population there than anywhere else in the UK . A lot of Purse net Fishermen from there I presume , mega bucks that job.I'm from Aberdeen, and my wife has a friend from Gamrie... when she speaks, I can barely understand her!!
Not in the few I have used. Scotland though our heads are already ¿????????
Nice job. I bet she hope Santa soon will give her a SL.Had a fab ride with my daughter over Frankfurt's skyline. Quite gnarly, but she made it.

True dat, but I've experienced the air-ground interface more in 1 yr on the MTB than in 40yrs flying . . managed to find a pothole at speed later yesterday, stopped my front wheel but not the rest of me. Feeling well battered today and new bits on order . .It's only cooler up there until you get a cravat at 150 above
