Are you:

🌱 Part of a family living in the area who cycles or wants to bike together?

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.

Spilling water at Roxburgh to sluice out sediment from behind the dam. Highly recommend this section of the Clutha Gold Trail #paihikara
A heatmap of the cyclist activity across Pōneke, with the three major trail centres of Mākara, Waimapihi and Mt. Vic showing prominently connected by a strong web of urban and extra urban trails.
Pōneke continues to become a real bike town. So many amazing quality off-road trails to ride, supported by an always growing seperated bike lane network. It’s like we live in a Alpine ski-in-ski-out resort town – but for bikes. Let’s get out there and enjoy it.
🎉🤟🏼🫁

No matter how shiny something is, you can always make it shinier.

As winter rolls through, it's a great time to book in a full service for your bike.
People in Pōneke, novemberbikes.com will sort you out.

Traffic was out of control today on the way home, but guess who was back on their bike and just zoomed through it anyway?

I’ve already had an email back from Councillor Coker!
She knows the spot and thinks signage and a curb cut are good ideas, so will pass my email along to council staff and the community board.
Let’s see if we can get this small but useful improvement through.

Someone needs to tell Auckland Council the 80s was 40 years ago and we don't chain our bikes by the wheel anymore. #paihikara
Love this little block of eateries but lack of bike parking is dire. Where we parked. vs where we could have parked Sent feedback to Auckland Council. #paihikara
I've been commuting for four weeks now:
- 1 x 🚗 + 1 x 🚶🏻 + 38 x 🚲
- 1 x 🌧️ + 2 x 🌦️ + 37 x 🌤️/⛅/☀️
Pretty good, I reckon! #paihikara

Picture looking down on my legs while riding a bike. I'm wearing a floral dress, black tights, and black lace-up boots.
Biking outfits don't have to be stretchy or Lycra or high vis. They can be 90s floral dresses with black tights and boots... or whatever you want to wear! 💛💙🧡🖤 #paihikara
What are some cool things that councils around Aotearoa do to foster conversations about sustainability, enable community leadership, and support behaviour change? (esp. around transport and waste reduction, but would love to hear about any cool stuff, really!) #paihikara #nzpol
Weird angle picture of a bike showing handlebars, laptop bag and satchel strapped to the front tray, yellow pants and brown shoes of the rider.
Day 1 at my new job ✅ Lots of information, lots of inductiony things to tick off, lots to learn. But also nice people, a nice bike commute to and from, and a nice lunch break by the sea. #paihikara
NBD 🚲 Is there anything better? #BikeAotearoa #Paihikara
Looks like it's time for my semi-regular reminder that:
- fat people can and do ride bikes for many reasons
- fat bodies are not problems to be fixed
- fatness and fitness are not mutually exclusive
- jokes about fat bodies are boring and there's no place for them in bike advocacy

Two E-bikes parked outside a store loaded with boxes of printing.
People at the print store doubted us, but getting our 5000 page print job home by bike was no trouble at all with #BlueberryTheBike and #BoysenberryTheBike! 🚲📦🗒️ #paihikara
A screenshot from NZ proposed Emissions Reduction Plan. Text reads: "What we’re doing now • We are reviewing the Clean Car Importer Standard to ensure it is effective and achievable. • We are working with businesses through Sustainable Aviation Aotearoa to understand the barriers to decarbonising aviation. What’s coming • We will enable a network of 10,000 public EV charging points by 2030 and facilitate private investment in EV charging infrastructure. • We will review regulatory barriers to decarbonising heavy vehicles. • We will work with other countries on sustainable aviation fuels and low- and zero-carbon shipping on key trade routes by 2035. • We will support public transport in our main cities. What this means for New Zealanders • People can charge their EVs easily across the county."
This is:
- exactly what I expected from our government-for-the-rich
- a pathetically weak and inequitable approach to reducing transport emissions in 2024

This week alone at least one pedestrian and one cyclist have died on New Zealand roads, yet our Minister of Transport wants to INCREASE speed limits.
