"We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us"
Stunning West Coast
3rd time for The Nevs riding the West Coast Wilderness Trail and it gets better every time. This time we have friends joining us so double the fun with Andy and Mandy and soon to be triple the fun when Alex and Chris join us tonight and start riding with us tomorrow.
Departing Nelson – Saturday 1st May
Mandy looking a little excited
Arrived at Greymouth and realised Mandy needs a lesson in packing for bike touring, starting with the size of the toilet (sponge) bag…!
Start of the trail snap last night
Then off to the Ross pub. Got to love $12 jugs of Speights in glass jugs with the local characters.
