Good story, thanks for sharing. I can see that being a part of your past. “Pee shooter” conjured up a different…image, but I think we all did the Bic pen trick at the time. I’ll have to teach my son.

4 months agoI’m there in spirit! I’m very glad you’re doing great and keeping a journal so I can follow along.
4 months agoHope your ride continues so pleasantly, Andrew. It’s always interesting experiencing your own country through another’s eyes! Further south, I recommend the Rimutaka Trail which can be accessed from the Wairarapa. It’s a little challenging, but brings you out close to Wellington. There are other options I know you may have in mind, but enjoy the ride!
4 months agoLet us know if you'd like a bed for the night.
4 months agoGood to know.
4 months agoSorry to be a downer, but don't get used to separation on bridges. Most of the time you will get to share, and some of our drivers are not into sharing. Check behind you before you commit.
In the SI, you will have a lot of single lane bridges, but you will have it sorted by then!
It’s a beautiful county and I’ve only started!

4 months agoAmazing! Thanks Robyn! I am not sure about the timing into Picton and I may stay a night there as they say catch the 8 AM ferry up to the start of the S2S.

I have always wanted to ride the Timbertrail but unfortunately have left it too late. Was lovely to see it through your fresh eyes. It does amuse me that you call the bush jungle!
