Orange Bike Ride on Saturday 30th April

Robert from Glen Avon - Waiwhakaiho

kia ora, we have had a few questions on our planned Orange Bike Ride on saturday near the Windwand, setting off at 10am, with activities at the start at 9am. Question 1 : is it only for families? NO, we added the 'family ride' in the title to indicate that it is not a race and we are going at a sedate pace. Purpose is to have a bit of fun on our fantastic Walkway and enjoy the Dutch treats at the start. Everyone is welcome. Question 2 : Do we have to decorate our bikes? NO, although we like it if people turn up with a decorated bike you don't have to at all. There is a free bike decoration stall open between 9am and 10am for the young or young-at-heart to get some decorations on the bikes. Question 3 : I would love to come but I do not have a bicycle pump at home. Can you fix that? Already done as we have our wonderful, local, Bike Kitchen present at the start area with free (basic) maintenance service, including tyre pumps and quick fixes of gears etc. They also have got a range of goodies to give away like orange bells, puncture repair kits and some kiddies flags (yes, orange!) for on the bikes; they can install the bells and flags there and then. Look forward to seeing you there. Even when you can not cycle, the coffee with Dutch cookies are open to all (all profits of the coffee stand go to Ukrainian Aid). The weather is cooperating, so come along! Robert

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
