Sorry to hear you week is crap - I thought it never rained in Texas.
You'd love New Zealand - land of the long white cloud - hardly any motorbikes of any kind here, let alone Harleys, because there is a $700 a year motorbike registration fee to cover all the costs of motorbike crashes to the health system.
Long ago I raced motorcross but there is no rego on those bikes
Usually.......it doesn’t rain this much. All these storms in the Gulf of Mexico keep pushing thunderstorms up into Texas. It was just one system after another. Crazy.
Ever since I watched The Lord Of The Rings movies New Zealand has been on my bucket list of places to travel. If crypto takes off I might be able to bring the family. We would bring our own motorbikes though.
Incidentally, The World’s Fastest Indian is one of my favorite movies.
Riding around the south island would be awesome (apart from Christchurch).
We live in Wellington, in the north island, quite near to director Peter Jackson and some of the first Lord of the Rings movie was filmed not far from us on Mt Victoria
Unlike with motorbikes, NZ is very pro car. We are right hand drive like Japan but have no car industry. So we have free open import on Japan's used car fleet. After five years Japanese people pretty much have to sell their cars because older cars are taxed off the road.
You can buy a used Toyota here for about the price of a motorbikes annual rego! - so for a low pop country we have a hell of a lot of cars. Auckland is a nightmare. But the south island has amazing roads and hardly any traffic
