Person who rides a bike, in New Zealand. Believes we are all better off when more people ride, more often.
If you’re ever lost in the wilderness, just build a cycle path because someone is bound to pull up in their car and park in it.

Allowing kids and their parents to bike on footpaths is common sense. This will lower risk to people on footpaths. It will permit parents, and Bike Ready instructors to teach children safe and courteous footpath cycling. We can't do that now because it's unlawful. www.nzta.govt.nz/projects-and...

"I want to ride Te Ara Tupua but am unsure how to get there from Wellington. I don't want to mix with cars." Here's a traffic-free guide on cycling from the Wellington waterfront, along the wharves, over the stadium concourse, along Thorndon Quay and Hutt Rd path. Enjoy! youtu.be/j110Q7qbha0

Impressive achievement to set a new cycling record across Europe. I note the previous record was old-school self-supported - respect to @ianwalker.bsky.social velo.outsideonline.com/road/road-ge...

"my interest in cycling is purely primitive... I’m gliding through air, while also knowing it was my resilience that got me there. I like getting from A to B on the most picturesque route possible while being able to periodically say “weeeee” as I go real fast." @@cyclewgtn.bsky.social

Wellington loves biking. Thanks Bicycle Junction and Wellington City Council.
I led a group e-biking along Wellington's new Te Ara Tupua path today. They all came back with smiles. Many expressed a desire to acquire an e-bike. #ebikegrin @cyclewgtn.bsky.social

Today, I managed to cycle all the way to Lower Hutt from my apartment in Newtown, Wellington. It's about 20km and I was able to use cycle lanes and/or shared paths for pretty much the whole way there! I didn't think I'd be able to do this in my lifetime, and I'm absolutely stoked.

Is your Mayor this cool? @cyclingactionnz.bsky.social
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@mayor.nyc.gov · 3mo agoI joined NY’s Cutest on the Bergen Bike Bus that they ride to school every Wednesday, rain or shine. We’re adding bike boulevards and more pedestrian space on Bergen and Dean Street, from Court Street to East New York Ave. It was a wonderful kind of day.
Bike lanes generate huge benefits: safety, easy travel, cleaner air, less congestion, cost savings, fun. But WCC plans to cancel bike lane projects. Please tell them what you want, by Sunday 10th. Here's a submission guide from Cycle Wellington www.cyclewellington.org.nz/annual_plan_...
