I decided to spend a second night in Greymouth and do a circular route, going inland to the North and returning South along the coast.
The inland roads were quiet with very little traffic. As a result I was able to take my time and look around at the ever changing scenery.
As I expected the coastal road was much busier, with scores of camper vans. By now I was used to the fact that their drivers had little awareness of the other traffic around them.
My plan was to be back in the early evening for a tour of Monteith’s brewery.
It doen’t get much better, a warm dry day on a bike in New Zealand followed by beer tasting at a brewery.
