Are there any kids out there in need of a flash new, shiny red bike with rad as lights in the wheels??

This bike has been ridden only a handful of times and is in perfect condition!

Looking for $70 (paid a tonne more for it)

The Rocket Blast is a BMX styled 20'' kids Bike packed with fun, the single gear is uncomplicated for young riders and low maintenance, the aluminium frame construction keeps the weight down while also being much more corrosion resistant than a steel frame. The rear coaster brake inspires confidence while the special kid's specific short reach front brake lever allows the rider to learn to use handlebar brakes with ease. This is the perfect Bike for knocking around the neighbourhood or skate park.

Price: $70

Hi everyone,
Hokitika has been named the most welcoming town in NZ in Booking.com's 10th annual Traveller Review Awards.
Would be keen to hear from those who live there or who have visited whether they think the town really is exceptionally friendly. What makes it a welcoming place, or otherwise? Were there any cafes, restaurants, shops or other places you received a particularly warm welcome?
Lake Tekapo and Oamaru came in second and third place respectively, followed by Cambridge, Picton, Invercargill, Martinborough, Kerikeri and Palmerston North. Would also love to hear from you if you have thoughts on these places. Please include 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it to appear in a travel article.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts?

"Snuffy, aged 17, a fierce defender of her property, a drama queen and dedicated rodent hunter. Died from kidney failure late 2018. PK, a massive show off and occasional thief, her sister, died aged 19 early in 2021, a week after my husband died. She comforted me beforehand even though she was unwell herself, snuggling up and licking the tears from my face."
