  • Ohau great it was to be back again

    A winter season just wouldn't be complete without a roadtrip down to Ohau. With Alan Davis at the wheel, we set off after work on Friday, compulsory Maccas stop then into the darkness. So dark actually that we missed the turn for the mountains. Finally rocked up at Ohau lodge just before 10pm. No...

  • Last day of the season - Ohau

    10 hours sleep sorted us right out, and what an awesome start to the day. Perfect bluebird, no wind, great breakfast overlooking Lake Ohau. Here we are, loving it: Snow was just softening up once we got up the mountain, damn warm already, almost a no jacket day. Took SJ up and got her cruising round...

  • Back to Ohau: The Last Roadtrip

    With the winter season rapidly disappearing and spring farming on in everywhere, it was time for one last roadtrip. Where better to go, than Ohau?

  • Breaking Alan's Balls (and loving Ohau powder)

    This was a long day, A very long day. Alan was trying his best to get the better of me, but I wasn't letting him in. Drive Christchurch to Ohau Up at 5:30am, in Rosie and on the road. Compulsory Maccas stop on the long dull boring road to Ashburton and beyond. Once you turn off there though and get...

  • Ohau I love to ride

    And that's exactly what their car stickers say, so I bought two. Right then, so here I am in Wanaka with Alain on my back trying to take control of the situation. 6 beers in the fridge with my name on them so I can't be long, or belong. Steinlager Pure. It's new, it's fresh, it's...
