Firstly a big thanks to all who gave donations on the canteen web site and to those still thinking about it the site is still operating.

Day 1 Friday 19th Oct. Palm. Nth to Bay View 192k
7.50am saw us start from Terrace End, a cool grey morning with a steady westerly that blew us through the Gorge where we only encountered half a dozen cars. Our first stop was at Ruahine School where the children and staff had a "funky hair day" with we three doing the judging and giving out prizes that Pedal Pushes and Armstrong Prestige had donated.Their donations raised just over $200 for the cause and after over an hour at the school we left in high spirits. That was a highlight that was going to be hard to beat.
