left auckland early tuesday morning (monday morning in the u.s.) from claire's house and set out for the 130km ride to hamilton.. it took me about 9 hours and i felt really fresh.. wasnt that scenic but still some really pretty sights.. i took the main highway 1, and a lot of cyclists here advised me to stay off of the main highways because they were dangerous, but i found them actually really nice and bike friendly with big shoulders and little traffic.. (for 'dangerous' see: anywhere in new jersey!!) anyway i made it to my host stephen's house who i met through warmshowers (a website for touring cyclists), and also i went to a vegan potluck with a friend i met in auckland the day previous..
