Mauri ora,
Peak #33,
Enjoyed with the fine company of new ChCh resident; Mary.
This brought back memories of the good old days,
When Mary and I would road ride together in Dunedin;
Hills or hot pace, twas Mary you could never phase.
Very excited she once again lives near by,
And also that I can now adventure in many different forms,
Although Mary is also a swimmer….something I may not try!
The ‘Little’ River MTB trail took longer than expected and the gravel climb to Hilltop steeper than expected, (read: Reta would have liked!),
Was it really only last month over the Southern Alps I biked?!
One is usually disappointed when the planned destination (Mt Fitzgerald) is not reached,
But it all worked out well as we still ‘Peaked!’
And now I can return at a later date,
To conquer Mt Fitzgerald with my fine adventure mate.
(We may drive to Little River in stead of ride).
Til next week,
Reta
