Friday 25th Feb 44.6 km 8 hrs 40 mins
Leaving Bulls I crossed the Rangitikei River, waited patiently to cross a very busy SH3 then headed further inland. First searching out the summer route, but giving up after 40 minutes once I realised it was going to take more time than I was prepared to spend.
So then across country via quiet country roads to Feilding for an early lunch, and a walk past lots of sheep trucks - it must be sale day. From there on down alongside the Main Trunk Line to Bunnythorpe, and then to the eastern outskirts of Palmerston North.
Heading south, with another tricky crossing of a busy SH3, the trail took me to the banks of the Manawatu River. From there a pleasant walk beside the river to the day's pickup point - Fitzherbert Bridge
