A couple of Kawasaki bikes (Versys n KLR 650) in the team.

http://worldbybike.com/trip.php?id=6 These guys also usually write a book about each trip they do on different part of world, really good read.

Had to fly back today from Hamilton to Christchurch in a smaller propeller plan rather than the jet 737 we went up in and they fly a bit lower at 18,000 feet as the jets seem to go up to 40,000 feet. Thought the height was very interesting as on my bucket list is to ride a bike on the highest road in the world at 18,000 feet so took a few pics of what it look like at 18,000 and also being lower gave me some better shots of the hills.
