Bike to Work Day

Every year, Wellington City COuncil provide a free breakfast to anyone who cycles into Civic Square on "Bike to Work Day". There is usually a band playing, giveaways and speeches from local MPs and the Mayor.

As today was that day (and I never turn down a free meal) I headed along. The breakfast was better than last years

Now I must have a sign above my head that says "Greenies don't bother me" as the Option 3 crowd were out in foce collecting signatures. They think option 1 is Transmission Gully, option 2 is a Coastal Highway and option 3 is an expensive white elephant rail system. Bu they didn't ask me to sign their petition.

But the best news I heard this morning was that Trevor Mallard couldn't be there because he had two flat tyres.

  • The 'lame duck' had two punctures - sounds like the last time he was on his bike was last year.

    Try hard!

  • Probably more likely is he didn't have a puncture repair kit with him.
