Nice day for a ride
Tim and I rode the winery route through the Gimblett Gravels today for him to see it and to see if they suffered much damage. Luckily this area is in pretty good shape except for the lack of electricity. Today is lovely day in 20s with sun and light winds so ideal cycling weather. I have included some photos of the devastation that is all around us so we are very lucky. We are off to Taupo on Monday and have to take the 5+ hour route rather than either of the other much shorter routes because the roads and bridges are out. One of them may be open for our return but not the shortest route, it will be weeks if not months.
