THAT...is a nice shot, mate!
That wisp of grass on the left injects all the depth and life into the pic.
Love it!
Will hop across for a read and Gmap fiddle...as always :)
Have a great New Year!

Thanks and same to you!

I was actually trying to get a decent shot with that mist/fog around the hill - wasn't even looking at the grass on the side of the road...

That was one BIG loop, whoopee! :eek:
:thumbs:
Nice to see the sun out most of the time at least.
That's another road that's still on the "to-do" list, never got around getting into that part of the NI again after missing out on a ride due to medical issues some years back...next time!
As always, thanks for posting it up :gday:

WOWWW...just caught up with this, what a loop! :eek::clap::clap:

Lots of great spots along the way, too.
Thanks for taking me along :chug:

Is it always in the SI or are there alternating locations/ areas for the TT2000?

It depends. They've had North Island checkpoints a few times.

This time around they based it on Mike Hyde's book with checkpoints based on each chapter of his book (50 of 'em) so there was checkpoints in both islands. You could ride 1 or the other or even ride both islands - completely up to you as long as you get 2,000km and 50,000 points.

I pick the South Island every time so I can do more exploring either before or after the ride.
