    So I hear, though I have Pukenui marked as food stop, might have a think on lunch at Waitki Landing (110kms from Coopers Beach) if the place can handle around 25 people at one time.

    Toying with ones mortality shouldn't be this much fun.

    I know the feeling, riding under pressure is no joke. Just know that the longest stint in the seat on this trip is about 80kms, and there will a toilets when we stop.

    I can certainly sympathise. I've had to find a convenient piece of bush on at least one occasion. I'm told it comes with the territory for us middle-aged males.
