Year six bike ride

Year six bike ride

Last Friday the year sixes did a bike ride, we started in Paeroa at a farm and went to the Karangahake Gorge and back. We went down a gravel track, it took around about one hour, until we got to the tunnel. The tunnel was dark but it was not as dark as I remembered it. Once we came out of the tunnel we went down to see a waterfall, we also saw a goat called Holly. We arrived at the battery around one o'clock, we sat down and ate lunch then went to explore. We went over a bridge and saw a huge hole in the ground that was used for gold mining we also hopped into an old train carriage, then we headed back.

On our way back we went a different way instead of going through the tunnel. We walked our bikes along a very tight track, we came to another bridge and then went up a hill then we went through a bush until we arrived back at the farm.
