Free Bicycle Maintenance Workshop at ALoT!

Amanda from Grey Lynn

Auckland Library of Tools (ALoT) is excited to bring you the 2nd in a series of repair and maintenance workshops every first Thursday of the month at Hackland Makerspace, just behind ALoT!

Thursday July 4 will be a free hands-on bike maintenance workshop! Come join in the fun, bring your bike, buddy up with one of ours, or just watch and learn the basics of caring for a bike and keeping it road-worthy. Bike expert Nico from Tumeke Cycle Space will help you become more comfortable with your bike and even help you with minor repairs, so you will ride away feeling like a pro.

Swap knowledge, tips and tricks, stories, and elbow grease with your neighbour and improve your bike skills, all while making Auckland a more bikeable place to live. Bring appropriate tools if you have them, or use the tools available in house. There will be nibbles and tea on hand, but contributions of food and beverage are very welcome. The vibe is relaxed, and social. Teens are welcome to participate, with an accompanying adult. We also have a play area for kids and there will be a couple of toddlers around as playmates!

Please RSVP ("maybe" is ok!) so that we have an idea of attendance.

Getting here:
Bus stops on Ponsonby Rd (InnerLink, 20, 105, 106, 866), Great North Rd (11T/W, 18, 20, 195), and Karangahape Rd (WX1)
We are also near the northwestern cycleway.
Limited free parking is available next door or on side streets. There is no parking in front of ALoT/Hackland.

These workshops are part of the "Repair & Share" project, a weekly repair cafe hosted by ALoT, RCANZ, and Hackland and supported by Auckland Council. www.facebook.com...

If you would like to help out at any of our workshops or repair cafes, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. You do not need repair skills to get involved! See you soon!

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Hey Pakeha - are you gonna let Seymour talk for you

Sarnia from Auckland Central

Govt is elected to
1) provide goods and services that one person can not on their own. Eg Hospitals / Police. Govt is not to change our Agreement / History Treaty of Waitangi because some minor party of a coalition (wannabe control freak) says so.
2) Wrong Chris needs to do (at the first bill reading, not second) what the people want, not what Seymour wants!!!!!!!!!! Upsetting the apple cart Seymour v 52,000. Loser Seymour!!!!!!!!
