One of the great aspects of this trip for me personally was the fact that I lugged a lot of technology with me the entire way. Three of my key pieces of gear were my digital camera (waterproof, shockproof, dustproof Olympus 790SW), my GPS (Garmin Forerunner 305) and my ultramobile PC (ASUS R2H). With these three things, I was able to make the trip come alive for people all around the world. Below is a list of links to all the rides that I did in New Zealand (starting with the last ride and finishing with the first). Also, I’ve put together two ‘mega-maps’; one covering my North Island adventures, and one covering my South Island adventures. All these maps have daily stats, as well as a selection of pictures from the day. (Warning: The mega-maps take a while to load in… be patient!)
