A poem and interview with two elderly women who cycled from Gisborne to Lake Waikaremoana in the 1920s.
Ettie Grundy, Chrissie Hardy, and Ethel Gardiner travelled in a trio from Gisborne to Lake Waikaremoana, a distance of 130 miles. They set out on a Wednesday at 6pm.
A poem about the journey is read, which is interspersed with songs about cycling.
Ettie Grundy and Chrissie Hardy are then interviewed by an unidentified announcer. They speak about the trip they made, which was in 1925 or 1926 - they were then aged in their late teens and 20s. They talk about conditions during the journey, including roads and the weather. They also talk about the popularity of cycling at the time.
