August Queenstown bike ride.
Last month I got a new toy so I dragged the wife kicking and screaming , actually screaming with delight and kicking my butt to get a move on , off to Queenstown for a few days too try it out. It was a little frosty but fine and the sun was low and in the eyes but the pain was worth it with a few of the pics I took . I know people go on about how expensive Queenstown is but the air is free which matches the views with 3 days of free riding some of the trails. Come on summer so I can have a go at those Central Otago ones.
As usual , Clicking on a picture enlarges it in a new window for a better view. The last ones were Lake Hayes and notice after someone ( hint : last pic ) kicked my butt it need a pillow too handle the 30 - 40 kms a day

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
