Test Trip #2

On Friday, Plannin and I (Pan) scootered from Paremata to Te Horo. This was 45km, half the distance of our trip to Foxton. It ended up taking us 3 hours and 50 minutes including a few small breaks to pump up our tyres and eat some snacks.

The big challenge this time was a northerly wind of 44km/h buffeting against us the whole way. It felt like it slowed us down an incredible amount, but surprisingly we managed to average the same speed as we did on our first trip.

It remains to be seen whether this will severely impact us on our way to Hamilton. Stay tuned to find out.
