Turns out the Flinders Ranges is having a moment in New Zealand.
'Stuff' ran a travel piece last week about Kiwis trading the poolside holiday for something more active, and the trip they wrote about is ours.
Liz and Alan from Gisborne rode seven days through the ranges with us in July, about 40 kilometres a day, after their cycling trip to Armenia and Georgia fell over and they needed a plan B.
"It was not at all what we expected, but in a good way. It was so much more," Liz told Stuff.
Yellow footed rock wallabies, a snake sunning itself with a falcon watching on, and an Adnyamathanha elder walking the group fifty metres off the road to show them petroglyphs of megafauna that most people drive straight past without ever knowing they are there.
Since the article ran the enquiries have not stopped and a few more 2027 seats have gone with them. May and June are already gone. July and September have space and August is getting limited.
Seven days, a support vehicle the whole way so you ride what you feel like riding, and a finish in the Clare Valley with a very cold riesling in hand.
If this one has been sitting on your someday list, 2027 is the year to stop thinking about it.
