Besides my flowers, succulents and berries [all $3 each] I have a number of very strong tomatoes ready for planting out. Surplus to my requirements. Just $2 each. Good range of colour and types, most of which you won't find in a supermarket, apart from Romas which will be ready soon. … View moreBesides my flowers, succulents and berries [all $3 each] I have a number of very strong tomatoes ready for planting out. Surplus to my requirements. Just $2 each. Good range of colour and types, most of which you won't find in a supermarket, apart from Romas which will be ready soon. Unfortunately I cannot display my plants in the driveway any more as someone has been consistently stealing trayfuls of plants. Please feel free to come and see what I have to offer. All organically grown.

If you’d like to host a fundraising event, please get in touch via the website. www.nobitetour.com...

As for the future of Pet Lodge, it’s still uncertain. There’s talk of closing the facility due to the property’s condition and the rapid growth of the surrounding community — you can read more about this on Change.org
. It would be a real loss for the community, but upgrading the site may be too costly. c.org...

Poll: If you had a bit of spare cash, would you 'buy' into a pest-free island?

Kiwis have always had a soft spot for our animal friends. With so many unique and quirky birds and marine species calling Aotearoa home, it’s only natural that we feel a deep drive to protect them 🐧🦭

These days, we’re getting pretty creative about how we do it too. The latest idea? You can actually buy a symbolic piece of one of New Zealand’s most remote islands as part of the Auckland Island Restoration Project.

If you had a bit of spare cash, would you 'buy' into the project?
And maybe the bigger question — should we be looking at doing the same kind of thing for wildlife refuges on our main islands too?

Police issue warning over electric dirt bikes

Electric dirt bikes are creating serious concerns for Police, with the vehicles featuring in a growing number of crashes and cases of illegal riding.

In most instances, the bikes, which can exceed 80kmh, are required to be registered. That comes as a shock to many of the riders who Police speak to, says Senior Sergeant Wayne Hunter, the Area Road Policing Manager for Western Bay of Plenty.
“We’ve seen people riding dangerously and crashes involving pedestrians and vehicles, and people need to realise that just because these dirt bikes are electric, it doesn’t mean they are allowed on the road.”

“Ignorance won’t protect you from fines or having your dirt bike confiscated, and Police are routinely stopping riders on electric dirt bikes to make sure both the bike and the rider are compliant with the law.”

It comes as the vehicles gain popularity.
“We’re now dealing with roughly four cases involving electric dirtbikes a week and people have been hurt. Currently one e bike has been impounded for dangerous riding and the cost to retrieve the e bike after the 28 days impound was $900.
"Two others have received injuries after colliding with cars and numerous riders have received infringements. If you have one of these bikes, you need to know where you can and can’t ride it, the same responsibilities as any motorist.”

You need a valid driver’s licence if:
🔹The electric motor exceeds 300 watts (not kilowatts)
🔹The bike is capable of speeds over 50kmh
🔹The bike does not have pedals (i.e., it cannot be classified as a power-assisted cycle).
The bike needs a Warrant of Fitness and registration if:
🔹If it can exceed 50kmh: It must be registered as a motorcycle
🔹If it cannot exceed 50kmh: It may be registered as a moped
🔹In both cases, the vehicle must be entry certified and meet roadworthy standards
🔹A Warrant of Fitness is required unless exempted (e.g., some mopeds).
Electric dirt bikes are not bicycles if:
🔹They lack pedals
🔹They have motors exceeding 300 watts
🔹They are capable of autonomous propulsion without rider input.
