Scott, it was nice to bump into you at the top of the Maungatapu - you were the last person I saw on course. :)

I'm sure there's something more productive I could be doing with my day - at this rate I won't leave the house at all :blush:

Thanks all.

It's fun sifting through photos and hearing stories from fellow riders, especially hearing how different riders handled the different sections of the route.

One of the better ones was Mr. Lindup riding through Nelson eating out of the pizza box which he'd put on his aerobars, and the single speed guys having to call a truce near Whites Bay after they started attacking each other around the 1050km mark :D

With that, day four is here: Kiwi Brevet, Day 4: Wonderful Waiuta

Great stuff indeed, Dave. It was good to see Thomas up at Revolution tonight too and hear some mad anecdotes, and we even got to catch up briefly with Jonty himself, fresh off the boat. :thumbsup:
