Te Mata Peak on Monday February 26

I'm totally uninterested in re-riding and of the Hawkes Bay trail. Too easy, too urban, not cheap. Alas, you can't go home again.
But I bought excellent wine at Te Mata winery (you can go home again), and a drive then hike up this impressive mountain.
Hawkes Bay is triggering bittersweetness, so I'm going with the flow and keeping melancholy at arm's length.
It's all good. I know who I am and what I've accomplished.
