Sand flies are a bugger. Don't rent Hybrids in Chch and try to ride over the 'hills' in the middle of the country with no training. It'll hurt.
Go to T.White's if you're in Auckland. I never made it up there but its supposed to be good. http://twhitesbikes.co.nz/ Also I don't think it existed when I was there.
Wellington is the best city. Nelson was nice too.
Have fun.
Also NZ is cold. Maybe not now but it gets proper cold. WTF at the lack of any heating. Move to the 21st century Kiwis. You are not tropical Queensland.
