Some of the 130 cyclists at the Heathcote Valley entrance to the Lyttelton tunnel yesterday before they passed through the tunnel on the annual spring ride organised by the Canterbury Cyclists’ Association. The tunnel, which is normally closed to cyclists, was closed to motor traffic till the cyclists had come out at Lyttelton. In the foreground is a canoe, whose owner, Mr George Murray, has no car. He took advantage of the cycle access to tow the canoe by bicycle and to a paddle the waters of the harbour before the return trip.
