Wow what a week for everyone around the world.
The Nomadic Nevs being forced to stay home. Our flight to Sydney scheduled today of course a no go as we hunker down with the rest of NZ in our bubble.
Instead this is what our day looked like today. A great ride with Betty and Nancy.
Tomorrow Andy is back to work as an essential service and we roll through another day during these crazy times. Thinking of you all wherever you are.
24 hour mini break to Mapua. So spoilt to have this lovely spot only a 34km ride away. The perfect getaway.
Well what better way to spend our 21st Wedding Anniversary than taking Betty and Nancy on an epic ride.
42km Coppermine saddle trail, rough going on a steel bike as so rocky, but blazed past some dude on his flash carbon full suspension bike! That gave Betty and Nancy a buzz!
Then it got cold, super cold!
Now what are the odds of having two lovely ladies come into work earlier in the week and their names were Betty & Nancy! They couldn’t believe our bikes were called B & N.
Where has that time gone! What a fun 21 years full of adventures. We are so lucky to have hit the jackpot! Bring on the next 21!
Ride done and dusted and almost time to crack open the bubbles!
Nelson – Mapua return
Starting to feel like summer is just around the corner, so let the summer fun begin and enjoy what’s on our doorstep.
66+km is a long way to pedal for hot chips but oh so worth it.
Betty hanging in Mapua
Home for a freshen up, back on B & N and time for a well deserved pint at Styx with friends. 23deg roll on summer
What an absolutely magical part of NZ. We have had the best multi-day celebration here at Millbrook……….
Oh my goodness Millbrook is AMAZING.
Smithies at Millbrook is awesome. Crafties by the fire with incredible scenery.
Day 2 – Lake Hayes Loop
What an amazing few days celebrating down here. Thanks for turning on the weather and giving us the best memories.
Well we have done our best gutsing out the Nelson winter but time to head back to Asia and get some warmth to recharge the solar panels.
Leaving Betty and Nancy behind but we will see them in 5 weeks where we look forward to plenty of spring and summer adventures in NZ.
Was well worth hanging around for winter to celebrate Dads 70th with the family in Waikanae last weekend.
Now time to get the show on the road and swap the beannie for a bikini! Keep warm everyone. Farewell from Auckland airport.
Making the most of winter back in Nelson. Betty and Nancy loving some frosty riding on the Great Taste Trail.
