TRAVERSE 126
quakes , and sliding hill sides . Every time a mountainside comes crashing down an immense amount of gravel is produced and what else is there to do with it but to move it on , a road covering seems like an innovative idea , after all “ those Australians with their red earth riding will find it a bit of fun ”. There was little the three of us could do but laugh , ah New Zealand , please stop ruining perfectly good tracks with a covering of gravel . LW
Traverse was invited to New Zealand for nine days of riding with Rumbling Adventures . Taking in the south island we explored some of the countries more iconic tracks and discovered a land unique in environments and cultures .
Aboard a fleet of Yamaha Ténéré 700s , taking on tracks that will challenge and roads that will please , Tim and his team at Rumbing
Adventures will show you aspects of New Zealand that many won ' t . More information on Rumbling Adventures can be found at rumbingadv . com
