i have actually met another u.k. lone female cyclist! Helena, who has just finishes her accountancy training, but no longer likes accountancy has another 2 weeks of her 2 month trip, she was staying in greymouth yha.Anyway have been leap frogging the same route since then - she is faster than me ,but is not carrying a tent (plus is a lot younger) so has to stay in hostels. both of us are staying at the franz joseph glacier yha tonight.
yesterday cycled from greymouth to Ross- am now traveling south down the west coast. Crossed over the Arahura river on a single lane bridge which also took the train track- 200 meters in distance. lucky no trains came!- goods only. Camped at Ross another old gold mining town now a very small village, then a 67 mile cycle to here tonight. Am staying in yha for 2 nights because have booked a glacier walk for tomorrow.
