Pre Race

Brett drove me down to Rotorua on the Friday afternoon via bad traffic. It was rainy. Like, very rainy!

The registration area was wet.

We checked into our accommodation. Brett's hostel was locked up and even after frightening some girls we couldn't get in. This problem was eventually solved by visiting some rando house on a different road and convincing the key-holder to let Brett into his room
