My possible training course for a 150 k ride.

This course takes in five towns, Otane, Tikokino(I'm not sure its a town though), Onga Onga, Takapau, Waipukarauand back to Waipawa, plus the hamlet of Argyll East. I will only have to travel on main roads from Waipukurau to Waipawa ,a distance of seven ks. and along Highway 50 for about four ks. I can abort the ride in many places to cut it short.It is mostly flat except for a monster Argyll Hill or Col de Argyll of about three ks.



 Patangata Pub,first port of call.

 Otane Main Street. The building on the top left is the old library which was opened a few days after I was born.
