Cyclists trespassing on private property

Brooklyn from Brooklyn

Might be a long shot, but anyone have a friend or family member that regularly bikes around the kowhai park/ohiro road area that wears this dark blue outfit with orange/red goggles? I was very surprised by this cyclist coming down from my parents property (which is not accessible to the public) and past our place.

I may be speaking out of line but I think we should have a little PSA about cyclists using private property as shortcuts to other areas. It's kinda rude to use others' property as you please without asking permission first. Its trespassing and this isnt the first time it has happened.

I dont want to be a downer but I think it looks kinda selfish and a bit entitled. To even get to the road to use it you need to climb over the back of someone's house and walk around, and that is trespassing...

My parents are very concerned as they have been robbed in the past, so catching people on our security cameras trespassing are putting themselves at risk of being blamed for crimes they may not have committed, just from trespassing.

Thanks guys have a good day :-)

💨 Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It’s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! 🌧️ We’ve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately.

In fact, The Post reports that our "pretty average" summer has been tough on the local venues and events that usually thrive under the sun. But don't pack away the sunscreen just yet!

The good news? The next couple of weeks are looking a bit more "settled" (the Wellington word for "not a gale-force downpour"). With autumn officially here, now is the time to squeeze every last drop out of the season! ☀️

Any local hidden spots or activities you’d recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! 👇

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

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 Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
