Orange Bike Ride 2023 - 30 April - even better than last year

Philip from Waikanae

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.
For more information and registration please go to the following link in EventFinda:

Come and join us as a participant or a spectator, plus forward this to your friends and family.
We have also attached a poster for you and to share with others.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
