Welcome back to Diaries Down Under Summer episode 1! We ease into things this year with a mellow trip over to Walter Peak station for an overnight camping trip before heading back to town and riding the new trail up Coronet Peak. There's plenty to do around these parts and we've got another 3 episodes coming out this summer, so stay tuned!

 I just got back from Queenstown and having spent a morning shuttling Rude Rock AKA Cock Rock I can say that it is one of the best trails i have ever riden. Around 8 mins of awesome swoopy single track. If your heading there soon hit up Jono at queenstown bike taxis for a morning shuttling it you will never smile so hard after a mornings ride.

 We aren't currently selling the tshirts through the website. Contact r and r sports queenstown or outside sports queenstown by email. They will be able to tell you colours and availability. Alternatively if you can get together 12 or more people who want the same colour I can sort you with any colour combo you want pretty much. Email me at merchandise@queenstownmtb.co.nz cheers. Al

 Being that NZ and Queenstown are my home I do care about how people spell town's names in my country. I guess I am just a patriotic dyslexic Kiwi.
