Well what a beautiful day for a ride.I had to go to my son's rugby game at Param and although a touch chilly it was mainly dry roads,a bike running sweet and very little traffic.There was still ice in a few places on the Piecock road where the sun had failed to penetrate but on the whole it reminded me of why I ride bikes.Not to commute through the Welly traffic but to have a decent blast and just enjoy the ride.
Stay safe out there.

Ah yes, I remember that hill from when I used to live in Raumati South. Nice photos. Almost makes that area look good.

Not bad today either. Just some green slime on the parts that get no sun. Almost lost the front on one of those patches even though I know they're there. Just goes to show...

Can't recommend it today. Shit all over the road. Was half expecting to see Noah's Ark stuck up a tree by the roadside.
