A 317km journey traversing from the mountains of the Central Volcanic Plateau to the Tasman Sea in Whanganui.
Friday night at Pipers Lodge.
Saturday we cycled the Mountains to the Sea. We spent the night at one of the many lodges belonging to Blue Duck Lodge.
Sunday we continued in very wet conditions and heavy mud, causing a few to abandon the trip, while the rest eventually arrived at the Bridge to Nowhere. Then onto Mangaparoa Landing on the Whanganui River to be picked up by jetboat. We all spent the night at the Bridge to Nowhere Lodge. Sunday we loaded ourselves and bikes for a trip in a jetboat up the Whanganui River to Pipiriki. Then we cycled along the road towards Whanganui to our cars.
