New Plymouth to Opunake 20 November, 2010
Rest day is over.
Time to get back to work. Today's ride went up Carrington Road to Pukeiti,
then down to the coast at Cape Egmont and on to Opunake.
The weather was
somewhat less than ideal leaving New Plymouth.
The bike path sure looked better a couple of days ago.
