CHRISTCHURCH TO DARFIELD
There's really not much to tell here as can be attested by the lack of photographs or videos. It was a short ride but we had to subtract as many kilometres as we could from the next day which, if we didn't stop in Darfield would have totalled 170kms. And we didn't want that to happen.
Getting out of town was easy but took forever and there were countless roundabouts to get past. The only thing of note was that my new bike, the Surly Long Haul Trucker passed her first one thousand kilometre mark.
We stopped and took some pictures and then following a brief and touching ceromony, carried on.
Now my Long Haul Trucker is starting to live up to her name.
