Devonport to Takapuna at 3pm. By car: 25 to 45 minutes. By e-bike: 18 minutes. Every time. Really appreciating the car horn on my cargo bike today!
We have an exciting new project we are working towards with Repair Cafè Aotearoa, but first, for the first time ever, we are hiring! If you ♥️ community resilience, DIY, repair and are an excellent people person then please apply ⬇️ jobs.dogoodjobs.co.nz/job/13579/repa…
It's surprisingly hard to write a job description without the word passion, but I will die on this hill. PS watch this space if you have a strong interest in tool libraries and repair cafes.
We're shut today, but this is worth a watch! youtu.be/IDS0RBMspGk?si…
We could use this.

Tejo was cycling past ALoT when he saw our brand new electric wood chipper arriving at the library. He became a member & went to get his cargo bike. After loading the chipper, he decided he also needed the long pole pruner, and happily loaded that on his bike too! 🚲🇳🇿
Friendly reminder that we are closed on Saturday for the long weekend! ☀️

We have painted cycle lanes like this, Waka Kotahi have offered funding for concrete barriers, one of the roads included has a primary school & high school on it.The Manurewa Local Board is declining the project. They say there is not sufficent evidence to support the investment.

Let's say it again. Paint, is NOT, protection. Scarily enough this isn't even the first time I've had a car basically drive right over the top of me in this cyclelane in Johnsonville.
Who would think giving bureaucracy-free unconditional money to people with money related issues under capitalism would allow them to solve many of those problems for themselves - and be cost effective. Good to see long term studies :)

The Living Wage Movement has grown from covering 0 workers in 2012 to 50,000 today. Each gets $27.80, equivalent to $10k pa more than the minimum wage of $23.15. Local success story in an era of little recognition of the lowest paid workers.

It's not surprising Luxon speaks in managerial wordsalad when he's repeatedly used the word 'company' instead of 'country.' Aotearoa needs a Prime Minister who's in it for New Zealanders, not a CEO simply out to make a profit.
