2009 started with a sore botty

Otago Rail Trail 2-4 January 2009
Version FIVE. That means we've done this trip five times. If you've ever been to Central Otago, you shouldn't need to ask why...
Group photo at the start. No idea what was about to be unleashed on our trusting natures... Gales, dust storms, rain, broken branches and debris. Pretty standard really...



Breakfast with the sensible.



Poolburn Tunnel #2. Dunno where the bloke with the big black beard appeared from. He really wanted to be in the photo.



Amongst the mining relics. In this case, these boilers would have powered the mine shaft lift.



Waipiata Man pose.




Prices Creek Tunnel. Day three was done in record time. There is no underestimating what a lack of a headwind will do for morale and the pace!



Finish line Middlemarch. The team slurping ale in the shade.
