So DJ, is this normal? Is this a regular winter in your part of the island?
-
Hell no wombat, I live on the coast. This is 1 hours drive north and inland. Its up by the central plateau, where the mountains are. But this weekend has been cold and this is what was on the drive to work. I'm working in Taihape which is on state highway 1, about 1hr 15mins away from where I live. The mountain region gets snow through the winter but this was fairly heavy.
The hills around the area

Can only assume the desert road was painted white also.????
-
The desert rd was closed today. The pictures are taken 5mins north of Taihape and the last picture is looking south, but wouldnt you just love to have a play on your bike in those hills?? ;D
-
Hmmmm... well, I think it's about 8 or so here right now, and tomorrow's max is predicted to be 9. But no lovely white snow, just rain...
Looks brilliant DJ.

I'm thinking the NZ Tourism mob should hire you to do their promos, DJ.
Your regular 'golf course' MX photos and these shots are postcard quality; it all looks sooo pretty.
Note to self: When I become Dictator the first place to invade is... New Zealand!

I think NZ winters are prettier than Queensland winters but it's not all beer and skittles up here either - last night I had to put on a jumper. :( >:(
...but that's winter so I know what ya mean about toughin' it!
-
Gee Wombat a jumper? I had to put pants on!! dam 15 degree weather ;D
On that point bloody Hoony is up from Vic, so we will blame him for the rain and grey sky :D :D
-
Over night temp in Taihape -9c ...... I had to put 2 jumpers on Wombat ;) and ya have to watch out for the splash back when the toilet freezes over.
STW, I bet Hoony was glad you had your pants on ;D
-
Mate radioed from Heard Island WAY WAY down south. top for last 24 hours -39 :-[ one of the snowmobiles oil froze and shattered the engine block!!!! he says they plug them in to heaters to stop stuff like that happening... and it gets colder than that at times. :o

If you had to go to Taihape DJ then I'm sorry (even in summer!)
If you go there by choice then you've got what you deserve!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D
