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 :-)

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
