The laws for using a bicycle
From NZTA: "If you are on a footpath with your cycle you should be walking with it, unless you are delivering mail or are cycling a wheeled recreation device that has a wheel diameter less than 355 millimetres (normally a tricycle or small child's bicycle)."
It is against the law to cycle on a pedestrian walkway unless it is clearly shared walkway, half for cyclists and the other half for pedestrians. In the last few weeks of Alert Level 4, I have narrowly avoided being hit by adult cyclists (in groups) while out walking on several occasions now. There is VERY little traffic around at the moment, so there is even less reason for cyclists to not use the road for their daily outings. Putting others at risk at this time is not only breaking the law of road/pedestrian pathway use, but also breaching the requirements of Alert Level 4. Anything that puts yourselves or others at risk is a breach.

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠
A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
