June 26th Sunday Club Ride - Riwaka Hotel

Surprisingly, we have never been to theRiwaka Hotel as a branch. The new owners(from 2019) are making a real go of it, and definitely worth a visit. Option going thereare Moutere Highway or directly on Route66. Home direct on Route 66, or up theMotueka Valley via Kohatu.

July 10th Sunday Club Ride - Toad Hall

Probably one of Motueka’s most popular watering holes. Excellent food and fast service. Option is to go there directly for morning tea and decided on a longer ride to come home, or the reverse and get there in time for lunch. Decide on the day.

July 24th Sunday Club Ride - Mapua

Some fish and chips on the waterfront sounds like a nice winter option. If too early for that, Alberta’s on the corner do excellent coffee and yummy treats.
