The push bicycle is not used much nowadays for long tours, as was so often the case in the pre-car days, but tourists report _ a fair number of cyclists on the roads in various parts (says the Hawera Star). Recently two lady cyclists reached Hawera after doing the journey from Wellington. They came from Waitotara, and were camped at the automobile camping site.- They carried a small tent on the cycle, weighing about 3Jlb, and also other gear, and were thoroughly appreciating the lure of the open air and having a delightful run thorughout.
