Day 16/47  Today Stephen, Hayden and I biked from Clyde to Alexandra on the first section of the famous Central Otago Rail Trail, which starts (or finishes) in Clyde.  I have walked, run and biked this part of the track countless times in the past, but today was the first time we've biked with Hayden all the way into Alexandra.  It's about a 10km ride, and Hayden rode at a great pace the whole way, thoroughly enjoying it.  Not too bad for a 5 year old!  And after a hot, dusty bike ride, what better way to end than to cool off with a swim in the Alexandra pool!

Here is Hayden at the old Mutton Town Bridge over the Manuherikia River on the Rail Trail.
