Biketober convenor Robert sums up this year’s activities:
The third annual Biketober Festival of Cycling held in Christchurch is over for another year. How did it go ? Did you participate in any of the 60 different events ? What …
It’s been another fantastic Biketober with lots of activities across Christchurch over the past month. If you’re quick, you can still listen in on the “Reclaiming the Streets” seminar at Tūranga this evening (5.30pm) or take part in tonight’s Halloween …
Have you been getting involved in Biketober events around Christchurch this year? I’ve seen some great photos of activities to date (even if the weather hasn’t always behaved…). You’ve only got a week to get involved in the remaining activities …
On Saturday 5th October 2019, around 20 people gathered at the Oxford Terrace Baptist Church to construct 14 wooden-framed bike trailer for $50 each. Steven Muir supplied the aluminium towbars, quick release ball-joint hitch, wheel attachments, and a variety of …
It’s hard to believe that we’re already almost halfway through Biketober for 2019. Already there have been about 25 events so far this month, with about as many again still to go. The weather this year has been a bit …
It’s about that time when I usually preview what’s coming up biking-wise over the coming month. However, when that particular month is October then it’s no ordinary month – it’s Biketober! Yes, for the third year running, you’re in …
Ever wanted to carry a larger than usual load on your bike but couldn’t? A bike trailer increases the range of journeys you can do by bike hugely & on the 5th of October you can make your own for …
Welcome to spring! Wow, the weather is certainly quite stunning at the moment (let’s just ignore those warnings of some looming Antarctic stratospheric thingamybob…). I’m seeing heaps of people out and about on bikes, especially on the weekends …
Springtime is looming, bringing with it daffodils, local body elections, and (most importantly) Biketober 2019! Remember last year?
The volunteer Biketober organising team have been keeping warm during these wintery months by preparing another action-packed October full of all …
Is winter over yet? Not judging by the weather out there; oh well, keep thinking of spring… In the meantime, here’s a few activities coming up this month (including some where you can keep indoors), maintained on our events …
Brrr, it’s been pretty cold lately on a number of evenings and mornings; certainly a good excuse to dig out all your layers for your next ride. In contrast, the night of this year’s recent Winter Solstice Ride was positively …
The shortest day of the year is almost upon us – and in Christchurch that means it’s time for the annual Winter Solstice Night Ride! For the 8th year running, people from all over the city will be congregating …
June is being heralded with the first decent winter snap this weekend, so maybe you’re not relishing the prospect of getting out on your bike this month. Hopefully we can tempt you with some of the events coming up…
Join the Peace Train Ride! This is a 9 km memorial bike ride visiting a variety of places of worship in and around the centre of Christchurch. Sharing the message “We are One”, the ride will promote peace, acceptance, tolerance …
Another month into autumn and, while the cycling activity around the city may be winding down a bit (although not as much as many assume), there are still plenty of things to keep the bike fan happy. This …
With daylight savings about to be a distant memory for another year, many fair-weather riders will soon hop off their treadlies and taper down for the winter. The cycling events calendar for April is also tapering off a bit, but …
The idea of the Fossil Fuel Free Coast to Coast to Coast (F3C3) is to have a fun holiday, and to encourage the use of active (fossil fuel free) transport for as many journeys as possible, particularly those journeys that …
I hope that you got lots of biking done during February (and also filled in your ride details via the Aotearoa Bike Challenge). The summer weather has suddenly taken a cooler turn; let’s hope there’s still a bit …
It certainly feels like summer has shown up this week (of course, just as many people are getting back to study and work…). Summer invariably means quite a lot happening on the cycling front, and the coming month is …
