Brief update as WiFi connection not good here!
Successfully caught train to Hamilton.
Rebuilt Hennie at railway station, then with a tad of wobbling managed to escape Hamilton. Sorry didn't explore it at all!
Eventually the smell of cow shit meant I was out of city into the green grass of NZ! And sooo green!
Milk cows and sheep in tiny paddocks - the grass knee deep! Lush!
Weather kind, tho only a glimpse of a patch of blue and one icy cold sprinkle of rain! No wind, so perfect for cycling!
Eventually found the River way path - smooth with ups and downs alongside the strong River Waikato.
Confession! I was pooped when I rolled into Cambridge - only 40kms but am soo unfit!
Found supermarket - and bike shop! So Hennie can be checked tomorrow. Found BnB - charming, cosy and so welcome!
Early to bed for sure!
