Spent a pretty leisurely couple of days in Napier. Bit of bike maintenance. Went to the hot water salt baths which have a variety of hot pools and also a sauna and steam room. Nice old YHA built in 1921.

This bike ride is (apart from a holiday for me!) to raise money for Re-cycle, a charity that does up old bikes and sends them to Africa where they are distributed to those that need them the most. All money donated will go to Re-cycle and will be mostly used to go towards the shipping costs of the bikes. I will be leaving Bluff on (hopefully) the 3rd December after a 10 day walk around north Stuart Island and plan to arrive at Cape Reinga early February.
Re-Cycle Bikes to Africa
I would like to make a donation with a credit/debit card
Please click on the address below and then in the `I would like to support` section please choose the Bluff to Cape Reinga option. The money goes to the same place as general funds but this way we can keep track of money raised.
