Book Loving Kiwis

A group for New Zealand book lovers (and authors) and lovers of New Zealand books (and books in general). A place to share what we are reading, introduce books we have written, and to discuss and recommend books. The more members joining in on discussions the better, so please recommend us to your friends. You do not have to be a New Zealander to be a part of this group.

Photos

This is a photo I took whilst my partner was driving my Rav on a 4WD trip in the hills of Central Otago. Scary stuff! This is a picture of me as I completed the 11km running leg. I was in a team with my cousins and partner. The duathlon was a two day event and 160km in length. We took turns running and cycling. Taken from Te Atatu. It's... uh, a ratchet. Don't we call these triplex as well? Or something similar? This one was posing at Tunnel Beach, Dunedin(ish). Kind of Kiwi, a little bit US though.
