72km for a scoop of chips!

It wasn’t the best day for riding today with gusty SW winds but well worth the effort to keep getting k’s in the legs, not to mention the best hot chips in Mapua.

Love our season pass for the Mapua Ferry and fingers crossed summer will arrive soon and we can have the tent on board and get cycle touring again.

20161211_093930 — Not a good start to the day. Flattie 5mins from home.

20161211_110806 — Head wind was tough riding on the way out

20161211_114257 — Rabbit Island and Grandma June’s seat always good for a rest (Sue Hill)

20161211_114310 — Time to strike a new pose

20161211_120557 — Mapua ferry with 2mins to spare

20161211_121046 — Love the set up on the ferry

20161211_123551 — This is what makes it all worth while. Best hot chips.

20161211_123909 — Then the showers came so didn’t want wet chips. Kind of felt like Lewis Stanton hanging out on the foot path!
