Agapanthus are flowering freely at the moment so it is a good time to think about how you can stop them from spreading by deadheading them.
In some parts of New Zealand they are considered an invasive weed.

Regional council chair Daran Ponter said the proposal was in response to increasing demand for park and ride facilities, and the cost of constructing multi-level parking buildings to meet that demand was prohibitive.
The proposal to do away with free park and ride spaces, is in the Greater Wellington Regional Council's draft Regional Public Transport Plan 2021-2031. Submissions close at the end of today (Friday).

I'm 74 and have an e bike which I would enjoy more with company. I can't commit to a club because I have stuff to do for my grandkids at varying times. At the moment I prefer bike tracks as I find busy traffic unnerving, but I might improve with a buddy... I enjoy riding to neighbouring towns. I live in Paraparaumu Beach. Cheers, Richard 0274846546
