Last year our class cycled from matawai to opotiki. It took 3 days to bike all the way. We stayed the nights in woolsheds. The girls always got the best place to sleep while the boys had to sleep in the sheep pens. We had to climb up and over a massive hill and then free ride all the way down for probably 5km. On the way down 3 people crashed and one of them had a big scarp on their leg. For the final 2 kms we were biking in the sand dunes and it was a really good way to relax after 3 days of hard riding. When we got to optiki we sat down and ate the remaining food (slices, cakes, lollies, apples).
This ride is something I will never forget.
