Well I had the ride of my life today, the roads just have no traffic on them and we had another sunny 380 km into Wellington. We stopped at mount Bruce where we had lunch at Pukaha wildlife centre, which looks after some Takahe birds, see picture, and from there we crossed over a mountain range and down into Wellington. The ride across the mountain was probably the most exhilarating of my life and I felt really alive. How I wish more of my VSOC friends could be here - it's not quite the same without you all.Up at 6am to ride to the ferry and our 3hr crossing the the south island. We enter the land of the Ork and the riders of Rowhan in the morning...... whats that I hear ???? My Precious !!!
say hello to the wombles
