Pick up or Drop off bike in Nelson (recommended) or Christchurch or Auckland (conditions apply)

Nelson is our Head Office, and is the main servicing centre for our bikes and our recommended start and finish point for your tour of New Zealand. Why do you think we live here? :-)

Nelson is at the gateway to the South Island's West Coast and is in the heart of some of the best riding in New Zealand. It is our opinion that far too many visitors waste valuable holiday time starting in Auckland or Christchurch.

Apart from starting in a large and busy traffic filled city, and having to cope with new traffic rules and perhaps riding on the correct side of the road :-), both centres are some time and distance from NZ's best motorcycling roads, particularly Auckland.

If you have less than 18 days in New Zealand, we strongly, very strongly in fact, recommend that you confine your trip to the South Island. The South Island is much more rewarding for motorcycle touring. In fact, if you were to rank the most scenic and motorcycle friendly roads to ride in New Zealand, the South Island would occupy the top 20 positions.

If you must...., you can pick-up or drop-off your bike in Auckland or Christchurch, though it will increase the cost of your motorcycle hire package if your duration is less than 14 days.

However, if you're prepared to start and finish in Nelson, we're prepared to subsidise the cost of the rider's airfare to and or from Nelson, depending on the duration of your tour. Please ask about our subsidised air fare to Nelson offer.

For rental periods of less than 15 days, a one way drop-off charge of NZ$390 to drop in Christchurch and NZ$690 to drop-off in Auckland applies.

Please ask for a quotation if you wish to pick up the bike in Auckland or Christchurch.
