Good luck on your adventures. Hope the ankle is on the mend.

always enjoyable content mate keep up the good work👍

🕯️ Thank you ❤

Love to see some town , smaller scaled gardens

My English grandfather and his brother took up a block here, up the Wairata stream, in 1909. It was heartbreaking, backbreaking work. They went to Gallipoli, with several of the boys from the Gorge; only my grandfather returned. My grandmother, the nurse who took care of him, came out from nursing in Malta to marry him and they farmed until they walked off the land until 1927. The babies were born in Opotiki, but were carried home slung over the saddle of their mother's horse, balanced by a bag of sugar. They were remarkable people, the settlers of the Gorge.

You seem jinxed when it comes to the Nevis Valley. Third time lucky.... kind of. A great days outing going through the Nevis.

Thank you Dudley for taking me to places I'll never experience otherwise. Hope you're mobile again now.

Great video. Such clear days too!

Hope that ankle's on the mend. Thanks for the video.

thank you for the awesome video! 😍

I saw the title and the DAF 3600TI was the first thing that came to mind. Jan de Rooij is a legend in the Netherlands and amongst many Dakar fans.

Bin there, how far did you go into the mine, I olny went a wee way and thought nah, mind you I was on my own so that makes a difference.

Brings back memories of a 3 day 4x4 trip from Omaru and around Otago/Canterbury plains area. Even more surprised to find a 2 man team and a tracked back hoe prospecting for gold 30km from the nearest road. Amusing to find such an assortment of porn mags in those musting rest stops.

Thanks for that, great vid. I live in Alexandra and any time I've mentioned this road, people who've been there build it up to sound like they crossed the Himilayas ha ha. Now I've seen it it looks quite do-able. Cheers

Hey there, enjoying your videos for a look at possible trips. I've driven to the Come In Time stamper before and not ventured further. My question is, is the road mostly as shown in the video or is there any gnarly bits that would suggest not driving it in a Subaru Forester. I'm experienced on gravel roads but sometimes there's always one possible obstacle that isn't worth the risk while on my own and out of normal rescue type range.

Pretty cool. Well done. That is my back yard & I have done that treck many times. Lately was to check out Santana Minerals operations in there of which I have invested into buying shares. Exciting times ahead. It was a shame you didn't go up to Bendigo, Welshtown & Logans Cromwell Reef workings. Or show more of the Come In Time Battery. looked a bit windy up there.

Great video. I went down that way on my motorbike a couple of months ago. Over Lindis Pass to end up in Omakau. I went to Poolburn and Upper Manorburn Dams, Alexandra, The Obelisk and back to Alexandra on the following day. I still can't figure out why I didn't go down the Thompsons Gorge Rd on the way to Omakau. It would have been way more interesting than going via Luggate and Cromwell. Oh well, a good excuse to go down there again next year.

Great Video, Thanks Dudley, the last time i was down that way was 6 years ago when I biked the rail trail a fantastic place thanks for sharing

Fabulous views and beautiful clear waters! These are great videos of our country. I like watching them as I haven’t seen much of it!

thank you for the video =)

Awesome shots & scenery!

As someone with hearing loss, I was struggling to listen with the dreadful music in the background, so I gave up half way through. Pity.

Sorry for your loss, Dudley. And thank you for another wonderful video.

Very sorry to hear your wife passed away. We enjoy your videos, thank you for making them and sharing your travels.

Hey sorry to hear about your wife

Beautiful.

Beautiful.

Thank you Peter

Dudley I am sorry to hear of your loss - that was a fitting piece for her. I have enjoyed all the work you have put into your series.

"35% less cars, so the bikes need to fill this gap".... NOOOOOOOOO... we use bikes and THEREFOR we have 35% less cars.

good vid mate,cheers from albany auckland.

Thanks for the great video. Losing your iPhone reminds me of when I walked the St James Walk back in 2001. I crossed the swing bridge across the Anne River and stopped for a rest and to take some photos on the steps down from the bridge. I was halfway to the Anne Hut and saw something that I wanted to photograph and realised that I had left my phone on the steps at the swing bridge. I dropped my rather heavy pack and quickly backtracked and over the hill came a young Belgium lady waving my iPhone. Then off she went at a blistering pace leaving me in her dust to beat me to the hut by a very good margin. She had walked the TeAraroa Trail all the way from Cape Rienga and I had only come from Lewis Pass. Oh to be that young and fit again.

Can't wait to have that SH2 section be finished. Last time I was there I tried to skip as much of it by going on the road besides Wairoa Pa but I was quickly chased by dogs not knowing at the time that it was a private road.

Good night from Papua New Guinea. I enjoyed watching your contents

AWESOME!! Such a stunnning part of NZ, truly blessed I've got to visit so often this year... bring on more visits!!

Thanks, looks like you enjoyed your Castlepoint visit when over here. Great Black and White shots.

Yes I've been there found it accidentally while driving around 😊but I need to walk further next time

Wow they must be good pies then 😂 This would be a great ride on a motorcycle 🏍️

You could spend a month in Wellington. So many cafes, walks, Te Papa needs a few day...

hey Dudley this is Ollie from the nevis, great video I will be definitely be asking for a fishing detour nex time I'm in Twizle

Great work!

That is a really beautiful place . Thanks for sharing

if only the billions of investment had shown up here in 2023

Lived in Tuatapere with my daughter & her dad who still lives there. An idealic life for us, until my mum & dad wanted us back home. They missed us, as we them. 🙏❤

Really enjoyed this thanks 😊

Nice guide. Thanks for your effort. A couple of friends and I rode that area as part of a motorcycle tour around the south Island last summer. Next time, like you I'll take the motorhome with surf boards and spend more time at each beach. They are some of the most beautiful beaches in the country
