Meanie's Excellent Adventure (22 February)

[Meanie]

Didnt do the loop dam it but will have to wander up another time, Myself, Dogs, Phoebe, The Yods, No bras, Lisylu and sly headed over to Hamilton for a bite to eat instead Had a nice feed and headed towards the bike shop when i had a minor mishap
Found the guys at the bikeshop down the road and had the very friendly staff in the workshop do some minor repairs so i could get moving again
Needless to say i am feeling a little deflated about now A big thanks to Road and Sport bike shop who fixed my bike and didnt charge me anything
So the route tomorrow has changed a little coming home and is as follows
Ngatea to Pearoa to TeAroha, TeAroha-Gordon Road, Okauia, Tapapa, Putararu, Arapuni, Mangakino, Kuratau Junction, Tokaanu, over the hill to National Park, and down western Access down through Viniger hill and home
So if anyone thinking of heading our way to meet us thats where we should be traveling

Take the naki version of the loop,come home Forgotten Highway,then a quick easy trip to the Manawatu,only about 300km out of the way lol.

Weather here fine but really windy,gotta love them dairy tankers and "B"trains going past,especially when you pass and the hedge does not give any shelter from wind,or the hedge finishes and a massive wind gust hits.

Sweet as, hope to see you somewhere on the road, flick you a text at some stage, even if it's just back through Vinegar Hill, hope to get further up than that though.
