In this Local Focus video meet Hastings couple Larry and Bonnie Burch, who love cycling.
They've pedalled their way from Melbourne to Darwin, Istanbul to London, and Hastings to Napier for breakfast.

"It's for the environment, it's for our health," Bonnie said.
"it's just wonderful to get on and cycle, that's how we both feel."
