Wednesday Ride

Overland to Muriwai Valley

 

20 January, 2010

The ride started at the Bakehouse, Kumeu  - which is not unusual.

 

In fact, it is very normal!!

 

BUT

 

 

after taking some of the usual roads the riders found themselves going up
the no-exit Pioneer Lane and then cross country in search of an airstrip.

This shows, roughly, where they got to.

To Here............................................................2.5km............................................................From Here
as the crow flies, not as the bi cycles.

Rachel and June look so fresh and happy because they walked up the hill.

Wednesday rides are growing in popularity.

(For those counting that's the 16 you see, plus the photographer.)
