Getting ready to go.

Today I collected my trusty Dawes bike from Avanti Plus bike shop in Hastings. They have done an amazing job in re building it with new gear block, rear mech. and loads more.  I am hugely grateful to Jamie who is the boss and Eddie who actually did the work. I rode back to our friends Judith and Jonathans house in Maraekakaho about 28 kms and realised what a great bike the Dawes is and how much I am looking forward to starting the long ride on Monday. Weather is good for cycling , no wind and about 20 deg.  I bet it rains on Monday!

  1. Glad to hear the bike & weather is good .... If it does rain Monday it'll still be better than the -9oC here! Brrrr. Enjoy the 'off'.
