The city was founded by Scottish settlers and has a statue of Robert Burns guarding its centre. Dunedin is Celtic for "Edinburgh'.
There is lots of Victorian architecture in the city with a magnificent railway station. There's even a beautiful beach, St Clair that has a heated outdoor saltwater pool.
You'll notice Keith having a wee dram of whiskey - well he started the day with a bailey's coffee at Jill's house - so it would have been rude not to have a dram in the Whiskey bar
Finally - a free cup of tea to anyone who can tell us the name of the worlds steepest street (a gradient of 1.266).

Bah. Gradient of 1.266: that's nowt on a 'Giant' mountain bike - eh Keith? Hovis reckons it's even easier in the front seat of the support van.
The steepest street has to be Fordfield Road. When I was a littlun, I'd get up on a Sunday morning and head down the road to see me mates, and there were all kinds of wasted bodies on the side of the road who weren't able to make the ascent. I think it had something to do with the fact that the Pallion was at the bottom of the ascent!
