Normally the most, insanely busy streets in East Auckland! Pakuranga Road, Ti Rakau Drive, Ti Irangi Drive. #lockdownbenefits #notraffichere 🙌🏼 @BikeAKL #BikeTO #bikeesstakl
Anyone else riding a bike in this wind today?! I have a carbon frame, I’m lightweight – I may end up flying 😬
It’s raining and I don’t care about getting wet while biking! #commutercyclist #cyclinglife #bikeakl #BikeTO
The only kid to ride to soccer this morning. He told me off for riding on the pitch, I blamed it on the fog! #BikeTO #bikeakl #bikeeastakl

The former National govt paid around $3m for similar services from CART, an NGO chaired by a life member of Black Power (and co-founded by Harry Tam!). It also used Tam as a ministerial advisor, and funded an $800k meth programme with the Mob's Notorious chapter as a partner.

I'm pretty worn out by today's topic now, but I thought I'd share this comment under my Facebook post, which is heading for a thousand shares. Have a good evening everyone. Count your blessings.

It was good to hear Ardern give a strong defence of the Kahukura meth treatment programme in that stand-up. You don't have to like certain people in society to accept that it's better for everyone in society if those people are not dependent on methamphetamine.
Love this idea –‘Cycle Friendly Employers’. Could this be a thing in NZ businesses? @AklTransport #cycling
As people begin to commute again, it's a great time for employers to consider becoming certified "Cycle Friendly Employers", like the @envgency has. Enabling employees to choose healthier, sustainable travel benefits everyone. Learn more @WeAreCyclingUK buff.ly/3hNQsWT
On my way to school today with 1 kid on a scooter on the footpath, the other cycling on road with me. I’m keeping my eye on the road navigating the parked car chaos with kid 1 when the other is nearly hit by a car reversing from a driveway. Kids need safe streets! @AklTransport
Cool to see primary-aged kids being awarded certificates in assembly today for choosing the #walkingbus as their mode of transport to school! Nice going @AklTransport
Nearly 5am, it’s 2 degrees, about to hop on my bike for my first commute of the day. I wanna drive, lol! But really, it’s just AK cold not Sth Is. cold – I’m making myself ride. 🥶 🚲
A 2 year delay on the Eastern Busway, grrrrr 😖 I won’t get over this! East AK has one of the highest rates of single-car occupancy in AK. Why are we waiting? Usually I’d be ranting about the connections to AMETI but now there is essentially no AMETI to connect to. @AklTransport
This👇🏼why we need safe, cycling infrastructure around schools. How do we help parents to understand they are the traffic problem at this time of day? IMO we aren’t getting the infrastructure anytime soon so how do we shift parental thinking?@AklTransport tinyurl.com/mnb7a44r
Drivers in East Ak already angry at the Eastern bus and cycle ways being built, now all the cyclists and PT users are too. 2028 is too long to wait! FFS! @AklTransport @AklCouncil @BikeAKL @WakaKotahiAkNth
