    1. I'm a Kiwi living in the UK. I am 56 and got into mountain biking only 6 years ago.
      I used to go into the mountains a lot in NZ in the 70's and 80's trekking. I left NZ in in 1989. Now NZ is a mountain bike mecca, feel like i really missed out. I was a city bike courier for 5 years in the 90's. Can't believe i didn't get into MTB'ing back then. I am addicted to it.

    2. Great to see you enjoying QTown guys. It's a great country I live in. Absolutely love the slow mo approach to the helicopter, reminded me of a few westerns I've watched over the years. Well done to you all for great riding and promoting this beautiful country, thank you for sharing with us.
