After a scorching Saturday of doing any errand we could think of that involved a place wit air conditioning, we were willing to venture outside Sunday after church. Ruben learned about a 60+ km bike path along the coast from Waikuku to Kaiapoi. Rumor was it was so well groomed and smooth that one might confidently push a frail elderly person in a wheelchair. That's my kind of ride. So off we went. It was indeed very smooth in most places. One big puddle to ford and some sand along the way, but all in all a good outing for a Sunday afternoon.

| Near the end of our ride we took a break to see what was happening on Woodend Beach. |
 |
| Woodend Beach at low afternoon tide has a long sand bar. There was moderately rough surf, but it was shallow quite far out, so lots of kids on boogie boards were enjoying the waves. |
 |
| It was also nice to see lots of people just taking a Sunday afternoon stroll along the hardpack beach. |
