The weather was great, there was still a bit of wind around but that’s normal for the Wairarapa apparently.

Rob, Helen and Chloe had hired bikes for the day. I unloaded our bikes off the back of Rafe, put some air in the tires and we were off.
Martinborough is setup around a square which makes navigation really easy.

The first vineyard to visit was diagonally opposite the Martinborough Top 10 which is where we’re staying. We were there for the first hour and then moved onto Margrains where we had lunch before and were familiar with their wines.

It’s amazing how the same or similar grape and wine type can taste so different with just half a kilometre or so between them.

The food was great and the wine even better with us buying a few bottles between us.

We’d just arrived back at the Motorcamp by bike after having a good nosey around the town, when the wine was dropped off at the campground.

It’s a great wee town Martinborough. Being nice and flat, it is perfect for bike riding and exploring.
