We're on the road again! Tim, Nick, Clare and I stayed Friday night in Hamner Springs, but we can not claim that we slept much either of us. The gusty norwesterlies (vanliga varvindar i Canterbury regionen) were trying to rip the tents away from the ground and I even tried to sleep in the car for a few hours. It was quite ironic that Clare was preaching about how important it is to get 8 hrs sleep. I might have had 2!
The next day was beautiful and we all tried our new bikes behind Hamner or the fun tracks. I was a bit wussy (feg) going downhill but I think it will take a while for me to get totally into mountain biking. I prefer more slow, technical tracks and mud is a bonus...
We left Hamner once the village became to crowded with bogans. There was a major MC event on the go and there were police cars EVERYWHERE. Since we had been a bit sneaky at the camping ground (hrm :-) we left before they put us in jail.
We had a great time, lots of laughing, stupid comments from Tim and we all enjoyed getting out of Chch!
