The Wonders Of New Zealand by motorcycle

I can understand why New Zealand by motorcycle is a bucket list destination.
Join me in this multi episode series as I tour the incredible South Island on a Harley-Davidson Road Glide. I’d say “what happens on tour stays on tour”… But not with me

3000 miles around New Zealand’s beautiful South Island with my best friend Emma Wolstenholme, the epic organisation of Tour1 Gary France, and amazing group of Harley-Davidson riders. From the scenery to the roads, the landscapes to the hotels, it’s been incredible. It’s been a wild adventure with landslides, extreme weather, seals and flat track, to gondolas and unicorns.

When things go wrong… that’s when the real adventure starts right?! New Zealand was facing some extreme weather resulting in multiple landslides, power lines down and totally cut off roads, so we ended up stranded on the north west coastline, penned in by nature’s disruptions. Thankfully Tour1 sorted new hotels for the group and eventually, 24 hours later we got back on track taking an alternative route around the island. The rain and flooding was mental. 400mm in just a day!
