Here are some of our favourite photos from cycling across New Zealand’s North Island.
New Zealand is a beautiful place…
As well as the nice views, it has some interesting Maori history…
They’ve got some great cycle routes, including old converted railway lines and the government is planning a path running the length of both islands.
There are wonderful places for wild swimming too (in hot water!)…
…and you don’t necessarily need a swimming costume.
We had some great camp spots…
…and some odd ones, like this slightly creepy shearing shed.
We were even hit by a surprise snow storm…
…and interviewed about it on national news (see the clip here, we’re on at 1 min 45s).
And by the end of it all, we’d crossed the 10,000 mile mark.
See the rest of our New Zealand photos and all the others from our trip on Flickr.
