The ups and downs
Rā 29, Rātapu 29 o Kohitātea 2017
Recovery day today! Haha! Hot and cold energising shower to start the day. With varying degrees of brokenness we decided to tackle the Old Coach Road from Ohakune. Each going at our own pace – Jo and I managed 10km by doing a few extra ‘dog legs’ and a loop around the Hapuawhenua Viaduct. We were very good and did some mid-walk stretches. Treated ourselves afterwards to lunch in Ohakune.
Day 171 June 19th 2016
Another long day out but on the bike today. The Old Coach Road is a gnarly ride from Ohakune to Horopito but easier on the way back. The viaducts are incredible – what a testament to the engineering skills of the Victorian era.
