Back in palmy
Camp site on the Rangitiki
Day 15 (Dec 17) Otaki to bit past Rewa 132.7km =1402km total
We decided to skip Bulls and go around the side roads through Fielding visitn Palmy on the way (their Uni is actually pretty big and Palmy itself is pretty nice)......this was all Adrians (from Otaki) idea....BAD IDEA ADRIAN!
The hills were narly, i think some went vertically up too, to make things worse my rear wheel got about 3 leaks in one day, big hills and flat tires dont mix! Thankfully Adrian and Liz also gave us the best feed of the trip so we managed to plough through the day to find the campsite.
The sleep was pretty eventfull too, as due to the hardcore day, both Mark and I had to sleep curled up in a ball (NGW) because even the thought of stretching out set on a nasty cramp!
So...dead tired, cramped up, with little sleep we were in a cheerie mood in the morning when we woke up to pooring rain....luckily we are hard now so it only took us 2 hours of procrastination (mainly fixing my back tire) to get going again :)
