Beautiful colours this morning as we wake and look out the window of our moho. But as we know the old saying “Red sky at night shepherds delight, red sky in the morning shepherds warning”.

We awoke to a good frost and fog! Finally at 11am it cleared. Then off on our first bike ride after a long spell off our bikes. Starting at Burtons Creek where we spent the night, our mission was to find the coffee boat! We’d been looking forward to riding this new track and had heard a lot of good comments. After the rubbish weather we have had over the past couple of weeks, it was a good day for riding this track.

Last year we experienced the kiwi fruit season in Gisborne and had an absolutely awesome time with our dear friends Ian & Tui Harrington. What a blast that was… worked our butts off forRead More →
While the rest of the country is having a ho hum summer, Motueka has been having a pretty good summer season, not as good as the last couple of years, but overall better than most other places. Jude and I have enjoyed some hot as days and caught up with some friends we have met during our Moho life. The house sit is over and it’s now back on the road… at the moment we are still in Motueka enjoying the good weather while waiting for the NZMCA “Music In The Mountains” Rally at the end of this month (Jan). We have had a wonderfulRead More →
