This was my first time doing this eBike ride loop along quiet country roads, starting from the Maraekakaho Farm with the well-recognised historic woolshed. There are plenty of hills, with beautiful views. The section along the 100km/h stretch of Highway 50 isn’t too long and we were fortunate that it was quiet at the time. We all enjoyed a good lunch at The Chook and Filly pub (NB as at April 2022, the pub is closed). After lunch, Simon provided a tour of the historic farm buildings. An alternative start point suggestion: The Maraekakaho Hall (Kereru Road off Highway 50 beside the school). Distance approx. 30kms.
