Mountain biking in NZ

Share |
There are a few areas in NZ which are great places to hang out for activities. Chief among these places are:
1. Rotorua - Taupo volcanic zone on the central North Island - close to fishing, whitewater canoeing, skiing, mountain biking trails
2. Upper Hutt - close to Wellington, this is another gem for outdoor enthusiasts with MTB, whitewater canoeing, ballooning, hiking, fishing, etc. Wellington City unfortunately never did much for me.
3. Nelson - close to this town is good fishing, mountain biking, but not sure about the skiing, whitewater canoeing. Aside from the ferry to Wellington ($70pp + $120 for a car), its a pretty isolated region.
4. Queenstown-Wanaka-Hawea is good for mountain biking, skiing, whitewater slalom, as well as as raft of other sports and activities.

These are the activity centres of NZ I believe. Queenstown and Rotorua are the easiest to get to. Direct flights from East Coast Australia - at least for Rotorua (limited) and Queenstown (expanding). I might mention that this April 21st there is the Contact Epic MTB Challenge at Lake Hawea. Every year the farmers in the region open up their properties to cyclists to go around the lake. This country needs another 1-2million, then it will be a great place to live. Sadly, its struggling to keep the people it has.

Japan Foreclosed Property 2015-2016 - Buy this 5th edition report!

Over the years, this ebook has been enhanced with additional research to offer a comprehensive appraisal of the Japanese foreclosed property market, as well as offering economic and industry analysis. The author travels to Japan regularly to keep abreast of the local market conditions, and has purchased several foreclosed properties, as well as bidding on others. Japan is one of the few markets offering high-yielding property investment opportunities. Contrary to the 'rural depopulation' scepticism, the urban centres are growing, and they have always been a magnet for expatriates in Asia. Japan is a place where expats, investors (big or small) can make highly profitable real estate investments. Japan is a large market, with a plethora of cheap properties up for tender by the courts. Few other Western nations offer such cheap property so close to major infrastructure. Japan is unique in this respect, and it offers such a different life experience, which also makes it special. There is a plethora of property is depopulating rural areas, however there are fortnightly tenders offering plenty of property in Japan's cities as well. I bought a dormitory 1hr from Tokyo for just $US30,000.
You can view foreclosed properties listed for as little as $US10,000 in Japan thanks to depopulation and a culture that is geared towards working for the state. I bought foreclosed properties in Japan and now I reveal all in our expanded 350+page report. The information you need to know, strategies to apply, where to get help, and the tools to use. We even help you avoid the tsunami and nuclear risks since I was a geologist/mining finance analyst in a past life.
