We are going cycling. I found a list of cycling trails around Kaiapoi and thought we’d give the Pegasus Trail a try. Confusingly the Pegasus Walkway and the Pegasus Bay Trail point in different directions
Anyway, this is the start of the Pegasus (Bay) Trail
The first part is through a lovely bit of forest, it’s still early morning and still quite nippy here when not in sunlight
But once in sunlight it’s really nice
Love these trees
Kiwis and signs, it’s just a not a good combination. Who of sound mind would come up with a map that has both “8 Pegasus Trail” and “11 Pegasus Trail”?
At least this sign is clear
And the trail itself is great
I never would have expected a coastguard in Kaiapoi, but there is
Some people just refuse to follow the rules
The Kaiapoi River Queen, maybe one day we’ll give this a try as well
The Kaiapoi River
The Pegasus Trail was a bit short so we ended up doing the Passchendaele Memorial Path, Rangiora Woodend Path and Jill Creamer Trail as well. All in all 30 km. This is in Rangiora where they still have some lovely old buildings. Next time we should do the Rakahuri Trail and then we’ve seen everything there is to see around here
