Solo OFF-ROAD riding in New Zealand | The Hawksburn, Lake Onslow, & Old Dunstan Road [E16- S6]

[@waynesmith2287]

I loved this episode. Used to enjoy riding over the old Dunstan road . In winter used to go snow caving up above Middlemarch near the Otago tramping club hut. I like that you check the small stream. Last time I was over there about 50 years a go my mate rode into a deep crossing and stalled his bike. Took us about 1/2 hour to get started again.

[@bencopsey]

Rode the Hawksburn last year on my bicycle. Such an epic view as you come into Clyde but that downhill is something else. Cool videos to discover other roads thanks.

[@michaelfroger1816]

St Bathan's is a favourite! You're seeing places most Kiwis don't even know about, bravo!

[@martinforrester8249]

Ohhh, I love you, Runa, and your wonderful use of colourful language, so natural. You make me smile so much. A breath of fresh air, you are.

[@OffSheGoesADV]

Hahaha, thank you! That's very kind of you 🥰 Have a good evening, Martin!

[@rhonda-my_honda_cb500x3]

Greetings Runa, from (yet another) Kiwi biker who's been riding continuously since the age of 20. First time viewing and now subscribed!😁 The look on your face at 11:40 was priceless! 😂 Jimmy's pies would've been made from NZ *grass-fed* beef and it wanted one last sniff & munch of the green stuff before you had it for lunch🤣 Now m'lady, I have to gently chide you for a 'small error of choice' in direction (had you but known) from where you took lunch at the end of the Lake Onslow Road. Where you stopped, at a merging intersection you would've come on to 'Linnburn Runs Road'. At 11:55, If you had turned right around, taken that road that veered off to the left, very close to where you'd just come from (Deep Creek Rd) , and travelled but 6km, you would've forded the Taieri River, come to a T-intersection, turned right onto Upper Taieri-Paerau Rd, gone maybe 100m along it, and you would've arrived at the Lammermoor *whisky and gin distillery* and farm-stay. Whatever their spirit, production and maturation terroir magic is, I can say from personal experience (of sampling a wee dram in the Naseby hotel), for an 'only' 4-5yo spirit, it front-foots it with the best of Scottish 12-15yo whiskies👏👍 I have deduced you only spent 28 days here in New Zealand (so maybe Lammermoor for all its temptation was a bridge too far). Your travel map route tells me you've barely scratched the surface of what's to be enjoyed here as a biker in 'Godzone' (God's Own Country). Runa, you need to spend 28 *months* here riding the roads both on & off the beaten tracks. And at the end of that time, you'll be saying "This place is motorcycling Heaven (Valhalla? It's literally Lord Of The Rings Central!). I may now travel elsewhere, but this place is now 'home'". Well that's how NZ feels to me. Do return soon to 'Godzone' for a truly deep-dive exploration! 😃 Ride safe, ride well John

I watch so much on yt that gets me down, but whenever I watch your channel I find myself happy and with a smile on my face. Laughed at the pie-drop. The colours you capture and the views you share, along with your “it is what it is” happy personality shines through. Thank you Runa, from Geoff, in Fremantle Western Australia 🇦🇺 🦘

[@OffSheGoesADV]

As always, thoroughly enjoyed another classic production from you, Runa. Always enjoy your meticulous selection of music. Very beautiful scenery, love how you coax yourself through tricky terrain even though you're very capable. And your rant is spot on, people all over the globe need to be considerate of fellow road users. Cheers

[@OffSheGoesADV]

Thank you! 😊 It was nice to try some more difficult riding on my own, even though the action cam footage makes it look a bit flat and boring! Glad you like the music - so much to choose from!

[@OffSheGoesADV]

[@JagLite]

Thanks for bringing us along on the beautiful trip. You are correct, drivers going slow makes other people mad and leads to dangerous passing and road rage. We have a lot of highway that is only one lane each way here in Alaska and every summer a lot of visitors in trailer, campers, and RV's who drive slow to enjoy the view and even stop in the road to take pictures. If I am behind a line of vehicles stuck behind a slow-poke, I pull off and take a break to let them get far ahead. Since I like to take breaks, take pictures, or just stop to enjoy the view it makes no sense to stay caught in a group of cars getting frustrated and mad at a bad driver and when I finally get ahead of the Pokey... to pull over to take a break then have them pass me. Stop, smell the roses, enjoy the view and let them get far ahead..

[@OffSheGoesADV]

Yes, that's a good way to go about it! 😊

[@renefridge]

Hi Runa, your so right about slow traffic holding up queues of others. I live in Queenstown and deal with it every day, however on the motorbikes... plenty of power does the trick. Enjoy your ride and as we say here 'keep the rubber side down' 😉

[@OffSheGoesADV]

I bet you get used to passing them! I need more practice in that - I'm too hesitant sometimes! And thank you, and same to you 😃 Have a good weekend!

As a pie connoisseur,that pie looked as dry as a dead dingo’s donger. But you did pick my favorite pie mince and cheese,great choice.

Yes, I totally agree with you regard slower drivers not pulling aside where possible. I've been driving our roads since the mid 80's and Iv'e seen driving habits change over the years... I don't know what has happened there (well actually I have my theories) but it never use to be like that.

[@OffSheGoesADV]

That is so strange... Perhaps parts of the world where many tourists come from, are not used to narrow and twisty roads, only highways? I don't know, it's strange, and a bit selfish to not consider all the cars piling up behind!

Awesome episode Runa. Your bonus rant is how so many people here feel. Love to see people wanting to enjoy our country but let people pass if you aren't happy travelling at the speed limit. Police have been known to give tickets out to people doing this as it does increase the road accidents due to people making bad decisions to get past slow vehicles.

[@OffSheGoesADV]

Thank you, Glenn! 😊 And I'm glad to hear police take action. Riding too slow is in it's way just as dangerous as riding too fast. That stuff triggers some road rage in me as I'm sure you can relate to... 😂 It' so selfish

[@cnm757]

Use your gearbox and your power, pick the traffic queue off one at a time, it won't take that long. Quite fun, sometimes. Make sure you know where your power is in the rev band and use it. One at a time is doable. I've thousands of hours on sport/road bikes around the North Island, your vids are entertaining. I can see you getting toughened up a little through your journey...

You comment at the end about drivers. Most of the campers we see are tourists who are no doubt too busy staring out their windows in awe at the stunning landscape they travel through. Yes it’s a little frustrating they often seem oblivious to traffic buildup behind them, but please relax and take a moment to empathise with someone who’s just trying to take in the Magesty of the landscape the travel through

Hi Runa, Views above Clyde and beyond Roxburgh were just epic, love the big wide open skies and the landscape in NZ is always so interesting. Had to chuckle at your pie drop ! 😂 You did well through that rocky downhill section, but I really thought you were going to drop it when you paused beside that rocky downhill rut, I could just feel your feet searching for a flat bit of ground. Lots of heavy breathing, a time for a little more "gas gas", a little momentum is your friend Runa 😄😄. I'm thinking you didn't make it to Larnach Castle, but I will see what happens next video 🤞 Yes NZ has so many many tourists, I was almost T-boned once at a cross road near Geraldine.

[@andreacrashe9894]

*Kia ora (hello) Runa, A great rant at the end.... and yes I totally agree with you. Camper vans are usually tourists... and have no idea... or they start driving on the wrong side of the road, due to the fact that they come from a country that drives on the other side to NZ. Hire companies now put on a sticker on the dash to remind drivers to stay LEFT. Yep they have caused many an accident on the kiwi roads. Maybe they also have a lower speed limit in their country too or get confused between Miles per hour or KMs per hour. But either way in peak tourist season, it can be a shocker out on the roads. The NZ police are out there patrolling the open roads to educate... and NO the NZ Police do NOT carry guns just laser-guns if required.🙂.*

[@OffSheGoesADV]

Yeah that could all be big factors! Those stickers are not a bad idea - I hear many bikers use to do the same. It's so easy to wind up on the wrong side of the wrong in a thoughtless moment!
