Back in The Umi Van wit Kat the Swedes
Met back up with Kat, Sarah, Malin and Jonahs in Hokitika. Was great to see them again. We headed straight for Franz Joseph where they stayed at a hostel called Mount Rose. The kids running that place where the biggest ******** I've met down here. They just sucked at life. Really. Enough about that - I slept in the van anyways.

Wanaka to Queestown
... trail. I checked the trail map and being cautious decided that the easy green trail was about my standard. So after letting a couple of other bikers go first (as I took a particularly long time about putting my gloves on and adjusting my rucksack) I peddled off down my first ever down hill track. Six long km the track turned out to be. 6km of tight turns, single track, bumps, jumps, berms, trees, rocks, cliffs and grinning from ear to ear fun. I think it's at least 5k before ...
