That's the life!
Well done. Keep living on the edge but don't go too near the edge !! Meaning... take care and don't overdo the biking !Have fun and love to you all. Fabulous start to summer in NZ if you decide to change direction ! xx

We're Here!
Its your old neighbors Jeff and Emily! Two questions to start: What are Fi's parents' names again? Where do I start on the blog? The one at the top is most recent, right? Emily

Amazing Trip
Loved reading about your trip guys. Sounds incredible, and the hospitality of strangers is just amazing. We're currently working n Antigua, Guatemala and soon heading south again. Just trying to decide if we come back up your way, or ship down to Cartagena! Be great to catch up with you guys soon. Go enjoy some R&R - you've earnt it!

We met in Omarama
Hi Ken and Fi, we were camped at the Omarama camping area (with our friends in the big black RV) and you guys arrived at the end of the day. We chatted about our respective bike tours (you guys heading south and me and my wife Gaby heading north). Looks like you had the rougher deal regarding weather! We had some very windy days heading to Hanmer Springs but nothing compared to Southland. My family in Gore say its the worst summer ever...Gaby and i are now in the Hawkes Bay where its hot and sunny :-) and getting ready to carry on around through Gisborne and then the East Cape. Hopefully as you come towards the end of your trip you will experience some sun and it looks like you have been enjoying the riding in the North Island. That was a tough bit of luck regarding the rental car, while at Hanmer Springs we wanted to ride the Rainbow Road but the January 'weather bomb' saw the road closed for a week and with the Awatere Valley road still closed at the time we took the bus to Blenheim (Lewis Pass was only open to 1 lane, Arthurs Pass closed at the time and traffic on the road via Springs Junction was diabolical). OK, enjoy the rest of your trip, perhaps we may see you again some time. Regards Andrew and Gaby www.thebikehike.com

Jeez, sounds like some rough weather - u guys r hard-core! Think we've barely seen a drop since we left u. When we did Tongariro it was in waist high snow and our digital camera frozen solid. Still looks like an amazing trip (considering you normally remember the highs more than the lows). Maybe u need to come and dry out in Central America....?

Glad to see you're still traveling
I just found the note about your site, I lost it when I met you two. I'm the guy that was on the motorcycle camped next to you at Grand Teton National Park in August 2015. Awesome blog, you two have seen some amazing things. I'm Jealous. If you ever find yourselves in eastern Ohio look me up, there's always room in the spare bedroom for travelers. Safe travels!

Look forward to come to NZL
The photos look great!!

Awesome!
Thanks for taking the time to do this blog

I miss Annabelle!
