Back on the road next week ( well that is what the plan is any way)

Well the plan now is to get back on the road some time next week - I have one more trip to the dr ( on Monday )to go to - as long as that goes ok I be back on the road first heading north to the cape then it's time to head south doing the end to end ride - my back up plan if I can't start the ride in the next few weeks( due to Heath or other reasons )  is to put the ride on hold until after I do my lake Taupo fun ride (8 laps of lake Taupo -around 1280 km over about 5 days ) in late November - that time of year is not the best for my ride  as the roads will be busier, harder to find places to stay , cost will be higher (peak season for many places)
