Dougal says "Y'all pussies!" We usually count around 70 peeps on our shared path commute, but this morning there were only 4... C'mon guys, you can do better - there's no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothing... ⛈️🚲🐶 #dogsonbikes #aklbikelife #crisiswhatcrisis

Great day to be out and about on a bike and riding with a diverse group from Meola Reef to Owairaka Park for The Convergence #eco-fest #aklbikelife #climateaction 🚲😊💚 @aucklandcouncil.bsky.social
The best part of my daily commute is this graffitied underpass! #aklbikelife #costoflivingbuster #crisiswhatcrisis
Ask me about car-less days.
In this household we just call them "days". 🚲

Testifying that an e-bike is an absolute game-changer! Pics below of just some of my trips this year: Brownie's Pool w/Dougal, K Road 4 music gig, Mt Smart 4 the footie, Pt Chev Library & cafes - my car doesn't get a look in anymore... 😀🚲🐶🏊🧑🎤⚽☕ #climateaction #costofliving #dogsonbikes #aklbikelife
Not sure about reach for hyper-local stuff on here but here goes, for my Manukau - Manurewa adjacent peeps.
Are you:
🚲 Already regularly cycling around Manukau?
🌺 Keen to start using a bike to get around Manukau?
🌱 Part of a family living in the area who cycles or wants to bike together?
We’d […]
Screenshot of the leader board for non-profit organisations with 50-199 staff. 1st is MOTAT with 2031 points 2nd is Greenpeace Aotearoa with 1024 points 3rd is the Auckland Philarmonia Orchestra with 504 points
In less important news, me and the Greenpeace crew are currently 2nd on our category in the #AotearoaBikeChallenge! 🚲 🥈
I need to recruit a few more cyclists to knock MOTAT out of their first spot.

Are you all signed and hyped up for the #AotearoaBikeChallenge? 🚲

Do not go to the shops.
I repeat, do not go to the shops if you can at all avoid it.
And if you really have to, don't go by car.
It's car park madness out there.
I love my bike today more than ever. 🚲❤️

@bikeauckland.bsky.social sometimes it’s the little wins which make the difference 👍😀 adding green cycle-right-of-way markings to this vehicle crossing exit at BP Waterview helps driver awareness and keeps people- and dogs- on bikes safe 🐶🚲 #AklBikeLife
I thought we were still in long sleeves season, but turns out it is already layers and gloves season. 🥶 🚲
Nevertheless, lots of awesome people commuting on their bikes across Tāmaki-Makaurau!!
#AKLBikeLife #NoCarNoProblem
Way more excited than I should be about work getting on the workride programme to help employees buy ebikes, bikes or scooters for cheaper.
Removing barriers for people who'd like to commute in greener transport methods!
I don't even need a new bike but I'm just keen on more people riding in […]
Had not had something like this happen in a while.
Riding my bike back home, car passes me and some angry dude yells something at me. Of course he's caught up in traffic a little bit further ahead so I approach and say "what's your problem?"
-you shouldn't be on the road!
"so where should I […]
Traffic was out of control today on the way home, but guess who was back on their bike and just zoomed through it anyway?
🚲😁
having graduated to the #eCargoBike club, our much loved #BikeTrailer is up for grabs…
it’s covered many km’s and made a tonne of memories, but still has loads of life left in it, esp with a wee bit of TLC

1st post… starting as I mean to go on.
Ka love it. No idea what was going on that day, but looks like I got a lot of riding and shopping in. #AklBikeLife
Bike wheel rim split in half
Similar shot from another angle.
When biking goes bad... Exploding rims, not my favourite version. #AklBikeLife
Brass monkey fridge freezer running off a ryobi 18v inverter.
41l brass monkey fridge freezer in a Load 75 cargo bike (inside the Burnsco shop itself!).
Open portable fridge freezer showing some drinks in each side.
Whoohoo, now the bike has a mobile freezer! Good for 80ish km and - 20 degrees. Now just have to work out where my daughter sits! #AklBikeLife #DadsLife
While I love the eke paihikara (bike riding) life, dropping M7 off to school with a dramatically bleeding nose (mine) and tissues wadded everywhere does take the glow out of it. #DadsLife #AklBikeLife
Ā strip of LED lights, a short section is lit up in red but the rest is unlit.
An LED strip cut and the terminal ends exposed.
A along strip of LED lights in a pile, a repair/join is visible between two parts. The whole strip is lit.
The full strip lit up in blue.
Pretty stoked. The LEDs on the bike stopped working some months back. Finally got around to pulling them off & trying a repair. It's not pretty but it works again. Love having a glow in the dark bike, feels so much safer! #AklBikeLife
Bike computer showing 10003 km ridden.
Whooohooo 10k km on the bike. Feels like a milestone. A lot of fun km I must say. #AklBikeLife
So I understand I might not have matched the brake to the bike perfectly. And don't have an exact km reading for these pads, but estimating less than 1k km. So.. Not recomending Bros brakes for eCargo bikes. #AklBikeLife #eCargo
To the 5, possibly 6 (I literally lost count) drivers who tried to kill or maim me on my rode home, here's a track for you. #AklBikeLife youtu.be/Qg7jA-H-jMo?...
