Phone reception is pretty limited to towns. If you stuck on some 28c tires and dont mind gravel then it opens up loads more routes. A freind of mine just cycled from Wellington to Auckland not using any state highways. He has a book. I will find out what its called.
Air NZ is really good. If you have two bags then your second one (bike) is half price as it is sporting equipment. Vergin (to shanghi) is free for bikes.
While in Auckland definatly pop into T Whites bikes (who are all in skullbikeclub) as it is an awsome shop. Also, come along to bike gang on tuesdays (send me a PM for details). There are enough ridings who like a beer or 5 should you want.
