Can I come [smiley=laughing.gif]
Seriously though we've never been to your beautifull Island we did try emigrating there in 96, everything was going great until the company we were dealing with went bust [smiley=dead.gif],often wonder how things could of worked out if we had managed to come there.
One day we will visit as a family (plus my bike)

I'm looking at crossing the Tasman for a 2 week riding holiday in 2005. I'lll let you know if I make it over.

My friends did a tour early this year of a bunch of NZ bike parks and loved it. I can't wait to get over their and go for a spin.

New Zealand is on my place to see list -

hopefully some day -

think i can throw my sleeping bag in the corner of one of your rooms?  
(i'll probably only need to borrow your toothbrush)

OP
Yeah, they don't make 'em anymore - it's a classic - - -

It's on my list too. Always has been. Unfortunately, my connections to the airline industry don't fly there!

And OP,
if you ever come to stay at my place, I think I'd rather lend you my sleeping bag and give you a corner to store your toothbrush!
