Before the rail trail

The dog is booked into the SPCA.
A borrowed trailer sits in the driveway, ready to be loaded with bikes.
The bike gloves and bike computer arrived on Saturday.
Two boxes of food are ready to go - just the chilli bin to go. Drink bottles cleaned - check. Tires ready - check.
We're not ready, but we are getting there. We're off to Alexandra today for the first leg of the Otago Rail Trail. We may even get to do the Clyde leg if we manage to get away at a reasonable time!
Easter has been a busy week, and we are all due a break. The kids are pretty excited about gold panning, although I suspect that will last about two minutes when they discover how cold the water is!
