    after an oil change we headed for the ole toppys cafe..now called tuis
    ...
    caught up with Steve and Paul..
    after a bit of a chin wag,,cup of the good stuff we headed for the coast..
    our new friend handled our gravel quite well..

    but did say he didn't really like it that much....
    after we arrived at the light house weather had improved a little..

    on the way out we stopped off to see how the locals were doing..

    a route change was in order as we out ran a large rain cloud was dumping rain where we where going to go...................

    great day out great coffees....
    thanks Steve and Paul for coming out and i hope you got our friend back to welly ok..

    And we decided not to put on our wets at the base of the Rimutakas (poor decision) & got soaked. And I picked up a slow puncture so I had a flat by the time I got home.

    Mmmmm, wet leather....

    Well worth a look and accessible on road bikes in good weather, indeed that margin has been improved by the construction of a bridge replacing the ford. There's about 5km of gravel from Ngawi.
