Hello Neighbours, the Team is Back!
Hi everyone, and thanks to the Neighbourly team for the offer of a premium business listing for Revolution Bikes!
We really appreciate the opportunity to spread the word about our bike shop. Being closed during Level 4 was a painful exercise, so like many local businesses we're reaching out to our community now that we can trade again. We've had lots of messages from locals during the shut down and we are so pleased to be able to help everyone again now in Level 3.
I'll make a seperate post about how we're operating under level 3, but for now just wanted to sign off with a big 'Hi' and leave you with a photo of some of the team, that I love, it was taken by one of our regular local riders Adrien J. and originally posted on our Instagram page (@revolutionbikesnz)
As you can probably tell the photo was taken in pre-covid19 days - back when we could hang out shoulder to shoulder. We miss that life!
Signing off
Billie Sue @ Revolution Bikes
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
Find out more about the scheme online.
