Orange Bike Ride 2023 - 30 April - even better than last year
Orange Bike Ride 2023 - Paraparaumu - on Eventfinda
Following a successful event in 2022, we are organising another Orange Bike Ride in Kāpiti this year, scheduled for 30 April. The Orange Bike Ride aims to promote cycling as a sustainable means of transport which helps us to address climate change through a standout and enjoyable family-oriented event connecting New Zealanders with the local Dutch communities in as many regions as possible across Aotearoa New Zealand.
Arriving from 9.30am in Otaihanga Domain the Start will be at 10am, with prize giving at 11.30am. Prizes are given for the best orange dressed bike and biker.
Dutch biscuits for everybody, plus games and activities for the children upon finishing the track, hosted by the council.
Full O Beans Coffee will be there with their coffee cart, serving Dark Horse.
People can ride the reasonably short track along Waikanae River once or multiple times. While waiting for prize giving, games and activities are available for the children.

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?
Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.
This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
