[Closed] I live in New Zealand, but I miss New Mills

I moved to NZ almost exactly a year ago. Fantastic place, no real regrets and enjoying life here. The only problem is the lack of riding. The firm I work for wanted me in Auckland and the only riding within an hour's drive that I can find seems to be man-made trails in forests that I need to pay to do. Don't get me wrong, it's a different type of riding for me and I'm enjoying it but having lived on the edge of the Peak District for 8yrs and then moving here has made me realise how lucky I was to have trails that accessible.

I've seen some amazing looking trails here in NZ but sadly all miles away from where I live. Rotorua is closer and I'm actually hoping that I will get there this weekend.

So, not really much of a point to this other than expressing the irony of moving to NZ in part for the biking and then being ****ing miles from anything decent and finding it harder to get good riding in than I did in the UK.
