Parked my car in Spreydon and biked an easy 3km to work. Intended biking straight back to car after work but it took 10km. Loving getting out & exploring our cycleways.

I bike to work year round and I have done so for about 8 years. I have had a locked bike stolen from a bike rack while at work.
I felt shocked and couldn't think what to do at first, but insura... read more

Cycling Action Network are encouraging people to email Hon Chris Bishop (Chris.[address removed]) about the bikes on buses ban. There's been a trial of secure bike racks inside buses in Auckland which looks to have been successful and might be a good solution.

Biketober is off! The outside racks were packed all day at Council House 2!

Houston is my hometown, born and raised there! I have been in Cali. for over 25 years. I am happy to know you found a walkable/bikable area! Houston is no joke with the traffic and tolls roads! They don't really cycle there! I would also be afraid of getting caught up in one of those Texas thunderstorms! ;-) I often think about moving back to Texas from Calfornia, but I think a smaller town would work better for me at this point now!
