Get on your bike

Annette Lambly-Robinson Reporter from Whangārei Leader

Hey everybody why not give this a go?

The first Aotearoa Bike Challenge kicked off across the country early this month, but is not too late to sign up.

More than 760 organisations and 6,400 New Zealanders have already geared up for the month-long challenge which started on February 1.

Registrations remain open until February 28 and a 10 minute journey by bike is all it takes to participate.

The Challenge is based on the global Love to Ride platform which has been brought to New Zealand by the NZ Transport Agency.

"Whether you have some experience in the saddle or are completely new to cycling, the Challenge provides riders with support and motivation and the knowledge that thousands of New Zealanders will be doing it with them," says NZ Transport Agency National Cycling Manager Dougal List.

As well as encouraging individuals to cycle it is a great way to make the most of friendly workplace competition.

The number of rides clocked up by a team contributes towards the efforts of the organisation as a whole. So the more people you get involved, the more chance you have of winning great prizes.

To give riders an extra incentive there is a brand new eBike, a Panasonic Smart TV, cycling gear, movie vouchers and many more prizes to be won.
