Day 15: Ashburton to Fairlie
Fairlie
,
New Zealand
At last, we leave the horrible Highway 1 and head into the foothills of the alps, through the pretty town of Geraldine and on to
Fairlie
.
Claud and I contemplate the hills ahead. There are some pretty testing climbs and, combined with headwinds, they make for tough cycling into and out of the aptly-named Beautiful Valley.
Fairlie
is not really a tourist place and I have a very quiet night in a cabin in a deserted camper van site, watching a beautiful sunset over the distant mountains. Time for laundry again.
Distance today: 100Km, cumulative: 1778 Km, remaining: 503 Km
