New Zealand_4 March

Route: Kaitaia - Kaikohe Distance Traveled: 84 km

FUCKING MOSQUITOES!! Every time I spend money for a room I have bugs keep me up. I've slept the best in the tent. I probably got four hours or so of sleep.

The ride was great today. It's still fun. It got warm slowly today and by the time I stopped it was nice to swim in the pool. Went over one big hill today (383 m) that was fantastic! It as early so not too hot and it wasn't too steep either (24x18). The climb was fun and it had a great descent. All the turns were slightly banked so if you took the straightest line it was like riding over giant whoop-de-doos.

I was able to pay for lodging tonight [with my credit card] so my $50 [cash] is still stretching. If I can do that one more time I'll be okay. I'm figuring on $20/day to live comfortably this last week.

Training Diary Comments: Warm. 4:30. Felt good [riding] up [the] hill[s] & on [the] flats.
