Retro Ride 2024 - advice please
Hello, Bob Selden here from the Greasy Chain Charitable Trust. Each Wellington Anniversary weekend, the Trust organises a Retro Ride and we have tentatively planned one for Sunday 21st January and I need some help please!
The people who previously organised our last one, are away and we have no-one on our board who has any contacts with retro cycles/cycling. Love to hear from anyone who would like to enter (once we have about 15 at least it will be worth running) and also from anyone who can lend a hand.
The business community in the CBD through their rep body Palmy BID are keen to have the event go ahead, which is great. We’re also fortunate that the Retro Ride would be on the Sunday following the Gravel & Tar on Saturday 20th and preceding the National Criterium Championships held at Massey on Monday 22nd – so there should be quite a few people around who have an interest in cycling.
Please let me know your interest.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
