Yeah well, I just checked Air New Zealand and they allow bikes as your hold luggage so long as it is packed pretty tightly, which is great news! Assuming I can get all of my stuff to pack into a carry on bag... anyway, that was a great suggestion thanks a bunch!
I'll also look into multi-use tyres, at the moment all of my bikes have smooth 23c tyres, also a good point :)
Does anybody know what phone reception etc is like? As I'll be going alone I'd like to be safe in the knowledge that if my bike becomes unrideable or i am badly hurt I'll be able to make contact.
