We are still hopeful of doing the Great Lake Road. We have about 6 days of nothing in concrete planned. Yes, it surely is a great bridge.

Hahaha not only steel work but also cranes and EWP's.

I know right, often an accident waiting to happen. Plenty more adventures to come. 😂

We arrived yesterday and saw a lot of trees down plus it's very windy. Hoping the weather will improve over the next couple of days.

@@onourbike6283 yes it has been very windy for weeks so take care on the roads.

Thanks. We are trying to share the talking more now that we've got our audio sorted a bit better.

Thanks for your kind words.

Thanks so much

Thanks very much.

It was very hard to stay under 60. Looking forward to some pub stays in Tassie in the later part of October.

Thanks so much. The helmet camera is Donna sitting on the back 😂. Commentary like this is new to us so it's a works in progress.

@@james91666 hi, we missed rain and hail fortunately and are currently in Ballarat where the mornings have been cool. We are heading down to Melbourne for a week and Tassie on 21st. We will be there for 4 weeks.

We were on the Mount Lindesay Highway between Rathdowney and Woodenbong. We think it is Mount Lindesay, but not 100% sure.

Thanks

@@onourbike6283 You make very nice videos. What do you dream of doing with this channel? Monetization. and positioning itself as a band. Which one do you want to do?

@@onourbike6283 You make great videos. If you can upload videos like this. You can be successful on RUclips.

Thank you for your comments. Murray is indeed a great drone operator.

Thanks

Thank you. NZ is amazing.

Thank you

That is spooky. You should plan to visit her, it is a beautiful part of NZ as is your part of the world which we hope to visit in 2025. Donna and Murray

Hi, Thanks for that. We did a two month trip this year February and March which was mainly the South Island. That time of the year is usually perfect for riding however no one can predict the weather especially this year in NZ. So the pros are you will have a great time and be blown away by the scenery so take your time and enjoy. Towards the end of our last trip I realised how much more stuff I could see and take in as the rider if I slowed down a bit. That in itself is tough especially if you like winding /twisting roads lol. The cons are you will wish you had more time on either Island and most likely will start to think about your next trip lol. Also if you like small museums then try and go to them as they are fantastic as we never found a bad one - Motorcycle Mecca, Wanaka National Transport Museum, Kauri Museum, - Northland, Classic Car Museum in Nelson and the Packard Museum - also in Northland, are a few I would recommend but I would need another page to list the rest and would go back to any of them again. So all the best and enjoy you trip and let us know how you got on. Cheers Murray and Donna

🤣 the sun simulator (love it) was glorious but the days were few with many cloudy days. The wind was way worse than we expected.

Trying to work on the audio, we're self taught and still learning.

The BMW is actually one of the most comfortable bikes to tour on.

When you travel by car it's like watching a movie, when travelling by m/bike you are in the movie, enough said !!

That is a great description. @@49googie

Thank you.

Thank you.

Riding through the Kauri Forest is pretty amazing.

Thanks for your comments. Still trying to fine tune that. What I hear on the laptop doesn't necessarily sound the same on the big screen.

Thank you for your kind comments. The machinery museum was closed but Murray will do that if we get back to Dargaville again.

Thank you for your kind words. Murray rates this experience pretty high on his list.

Thanks so much

We missed the back road this time, the weather was ordinary. We'll just have to go back.

Yes, we love riding here and this road was pretty awesome.

Thanks so much. Using a mix of iPhone, DJI mini drone and GoPro11

Thank you.

Hi, thanks for your comments. We use timeshare/vacation club in Orewa (Nautilus) and Paihia (Busby Manor) so hard to put a figure on that. We will be returning to the North Island later in the year and will use cabins/airbnb's/backpackers/pubs and the cheapest we got was $79 for backpackers and up to $140 a night. Enjoy your trip.

Thanks. We did and will be back in NZ in July for more adventures.

Hi, sorry for slow to respond. We use a GoPro 11. Editing with iMovie and still learning.

No worry's, the camera along with ya edit does great. I'm using a gopro 9, but have just noted changing some rendering settings made massive difference in my latest film. Thanks for your reply, and look forward to seeing your next video.
