[QUOTE="Morecowbell, post: 1215624, member: 27150"] Wow, what a fantastically awesome ride report. Your photos are soooo much better than the crap I posted last week. I wish I was set up to take pics as we headed down the road. I know that if I tried that, I'd drop the camera and it would go bouncing down the road. Summit Road looks like a LOT of fun. I wish I would have spotted that on the map so I could have hit it. Yep, those roads were rather boring...but I guess we got lucky, since it was sunny and warmer as we passed through that area. That's so cool to see your route that day...we retraced much of your route that day in the opposite direction. Lake Pukaki...when we saw it, we were in awe of how blue the water actually is. And Mount Cook in the background...stunning. We didn't get to ride to the base either, since it was 30 miles each way from the road we were on. Didn't have time. I'll make sure I hit it next time. Lindis Pass is where we saw the sheep being herded down the road. One of the funniest things I've seen on the road in a long time. Sucks that the damn tourists book up all the hotel rooms! I spent several late evenings using wifi to find a room for the following night. A few nights I though we might have to sleep on a park bench somewhere. Luckily it never came to that. I can't wait to see the next part of the story. [/QUOTE]
