I’ll be riding all day tomorrow then heading home to Parkview for two nights.

Karl Ratahi, 29/02/20 16:36:41:
Hi Folks. I’m on the ferry saying goodbye to the north. Was an awesome experience.

David Birkin, 29/02/20 14:05:00:
Bike is broken, the end of my tour. Wellington next for a new bike or a flight back to Auckland and the UK.

Rod Ward, 29/02/20 02:43:12:
Thanks for the good wishes, it's been hard to stay focussed when Russell and myself planned this as an adventure together. He's being my helpdesk from home.

David Birkin, 28/02/20 22:51:30:
Is the lady with the broken leg okay? No phone reception here so can't check.

David Birkin, 28/02/20 22:06:00:
Checking in, all okay

Look at this location on google aerial view. Good thing I don't have a problem with heights. That was an interesting bridge with a bike.

Karl Ratahi, 25/02/20 21:59:10:

Karl Ratahi, 24/02/20 21:51:51:
Hi Folks. I’m in Mangakino. I’ve had four really great days bar the 9km on Highway 29 today. Just noticed the first sign of broken skin on my left cheek. Mike Christiansen had offered to undertake minor surgery when I get to the Manawatu.
