Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that doesn’t justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how's it going?

I finally managed to convince my siblings to join me on a bike ride and we went over to Hunua on Sunday and did the easy ride from the top of Moumoukai Hill Road down to the Clevedon market. Highly recommend if you're in the area, and it was a ridiculously beautiful day for it.

Looks like a nice ride!

Although if the ride is downhill almost all the way, does that mean you have to ride uphill almost all the way back to your car?

Like some kind of masochist, I volunteered to head in about 90 minutes early, park at Clevedon, and ride to meet them at the top. I was only about five minutes short of actually beating them to the top, which I'm pretty proud of. That climb is hard.

Wow, good job!
