A Wednesday ride again this week with the usual meeting from 11 am at Pomeroy’s another opportunity for the Konica Challenge picture at Collingwood. I am expecting to head out of Richmond on the Appleby Highway turning off onto the Moutere Highway and taking Neudorf Road to the Motueka Highway and possibly the West Bank to reach the “Hill”. Lunch can be at either the Collingwood Cafe or return up the road a bit to the Mussel Inn and have liquid lunch there? This is a round trip of about 250 km, will we exceed the nine who made it last week? I hope so.  |

After six of us were eclipsed at Pomeroy's five left and rode the Coastal, Upper Moutere and Motueka Highway's before running down the West Bank to the "Hill". As we approached Collingwood it became quite blustery but we were informed by the Collingwood Cafe owner that it was just a breeze. It had been recommended to Henry that we try the fish n chips where five out of six, yup six as we had a late arrival, sampled the blue cod which we can now recommend too. We left Collingwood and needed something to clean the palette which the Mussel Inn provided very well.
We returned back over the "Hill" in glorious weather.
