A petite tattooed middle-aged Māori wāhine stands smiling in an office, wearing green and pink-framed glasses and a black cap. She points to her black t-shirt featuring pink text reading KAIEKE PĀHIKARA (bike rider) above a colourful illustration of a person riding a bike. She wears black shorts. Her arms display traditional Māori moko. Framed certificates and an office chair are visible in the background.

1st ride of the month!
Whānau arrived after overnight flight from Ahitereiria delayed. Now sleeping. Moko Bluey obsessed!
Chain fell off bike. Got jammed in de-railer. Nice fellow traveller stopped to help. #KiaMāori #ReoMāori #Kikorangi #Wāhine #Kuia #MāoriSky #Skybrarian
Made it to work in one piece LOL! #BikeAKL
So good:
“Every bike you pass represents one less car in front of you at the lights.”
In other words, politicians have a choice: make a bunch of motorists mad once by building a bike lane or two, or make thousands of them intermittently mad indefinitely.

Kim, a smiling, tattooed middle-aged Māori wahine, is sitting on a pink couch wearing a light blue bike helmet decorated with a tūī sticker. She has red-framed glasses, a black sweatshirt with a bold red Māori design, and black pants featuring illustrations by Aboriginal artist Kaylene Whiskey. Kim is holding manu (bird) stickers by Pepper Raccoon and appears to be enjoying a relaxed moment.
Mōrena e te whānau. Love my new bike helmet even more now that it has added manu nā @pepperraccoon.com 🩵 #stickers #pahikara #BikeAkl
It is bleak out there! Grateful that I got home before the heavens opened! But had all my wet weather gear on just in case #BikeAKL #Bike #Pahikara
