Day 2 of my two day exploration of the West Coast Wilderness Trail. A friend dropped me off at the Kawhaka Intake and I hoped to meet him again in Hokitika in 5 hours time.Nice quick find as I rode the final leg toward Hokitika. TFTC.
 
30-Mar-15
What started as a plan to just bike a bit of the cycle trail from the Kawhaka weir evolved in a through trip right round to Hoki, 51.2km in fact. It was a bit like trying to herd cats getting organised, but it turned out to be a great afternoon out.
Cheers and thanks,
S.t.
