点评:We (group of six friends) used Shorebird Cycles to do a two-day cycle ride from Clevedon to Thames; we rode the Hūnua Traverse followed by the Hauraki Rail Trail.
Shorebird cycles provided hire bikes and minibus transport from Kaiaua to Clevedon, then Thames back to Kaiaua. The bikes were great; very reliable and well-specced; just the job for some quite challenging terrain. The e-bike batteries had plenty of juice left, even after the 1,180m total climb over the Hūnua Ranges.
Bob, the proprietor of Shorebird Cycles, couldn't have been nicer. Always on time, with a sunny smile and a well-appointed shop and van. He was very helpful when we we were working out our end-to-end logistics.
We stayed in The Bus Depot, a charming place just up the road in Whakatīwai (you can find it on AirBnB).
I highly recommend Bob, Shorebird Cycles, the Hūnua Traverse and the Hauraki Rail Trail.
翻译:我们一行六位朋友租用了Shorebird Cycles的自行车,进行了为期两天的从克利夫顿到泰晤士的骑行之旅;我们先骑行了胡努阿穿越路线,然后是豪拉基铁路步道。
Shorebird Cycles提供从凯奥瓦到克利夫顿,再从泰晤士返回凯奥瓦的自行车租赁和小型巴士接送服务。自行车非常棒,性能可靠,配置齐全,完全能够应对一些颇具挑战性的地形。即使在翻越胡努阿山脉1180米之后,电动自行车的电池仍然电量充足。
Shorebird Cycles的老板鲍勃非常友善。他总是准时出现,脸上总是挂着灿烂的笑容,他的店铺和货车也布置得井井有条。在我们安排行程时,他提供了很多帮助。
我们住在The Bus Depot,这是一个位于瓦卡蒂怀(Whakatīwai)的迷人旅馆,就在路边(你可以在Airbnb上找到它)。
我强烈推荐鲍勃、Shorebird Cycles自行车店、Hūnua Traverse徒步路线和Hauraki Rail Trail铁路步道。
