It's magic - last time I was over there (on bikes) it had just been re-surfaced.

I ended up being late to dinner that night :P  

What year was that Rab.

We went on bikes in Feb 2012 and I was very disappointed in the general road surface.

There were many times I hooked into a corner only to be met with a pothole (of various sizes) on the apex.

Met a friend in Hobart, he said the Govt had not spent enough money on roads.

Or were you just referring to the road into Queenstown ?

Was early 2k's - never had an issue with any of the roads

Took a while to get used to roads that actually had camber, reducing radius corners and speed warning signs that weren't overblown.

Regarding the resurfacing - it was just the Queenstown run I was talking about - I don't think they resurface the whole island as a single job :P

Am looking forward to taking the east coast in anger - was a wet run last time

 

 

edit for timeline: son was born october 1999 - he was conceived on the last tassie trip I did, so late '98 was when I was there
