I'm certainly keeping this one. The remarkable thing was the first time I watched it (from YouTube directly) I didn't get my bearings until about half way up Rangitikei St. I was expecting the Esplanade exit to be in Park Rd - hence really got confused. After downloading it then watching it on VLC Media Player it was easy to pick the exit as Manawaroa St - and I could identify virtually every significant landmark afterwards - even the pet shop which is very close to the entrance to Milson depot.
@zelo1954 I always overshoot the pet shop on Tremaine when travelling in this direction - their sign only faces traffic for the other direction and I never recognise surrounding landmarks. What annoyed me was that when I recorded the rest of the journey home to Feilding, I was chasing a train and ended up first in line on the crossing at East St - little did I know the battery conked out just after I got onto Airport Rd. Never mind, another day.
HaHa! love the guy peddling his bike at 3.31 . need to capture a lot of bike riders together and fast forward on a video! would be amusing to do this with some NZR shunters in yard

I see you had to stop a few times. That's the problem with Palmy traffic lights

@TheIntrinsic6 I also had to stop on a green to let the traffic turning on a red through...that's the problem with Palmy drivers.

Made me feel quite homesick. Always nice to see Palmy on a sunny day. Thanks for the post.
