ArtWeek by Cycle – and City Riding tours for beginners!

Jolisa

artweekbiketourEvery year, the lovely people at NextBike team up with Auckland Transport to bring you fresh views of the city by bike.

Restaurant Week by Bike last month was so popular it filled up before we even had a chance to blog about it!

Luckily there are a few spots left on the ArtWeek tours over the next two Saturdays – see details below.

And, if you’re relatively new to the whole idea of biking round the city, you might want to check out the super-friendly City Riding tours, which run on Sundays 18 October and 8 November.

ArtWeek Bike Tours

This is the fifth year NextBike has worked with Auckland Transport to guide people around the brilliant ArtWeek galleries and public art-pieces. The local gallery owners will give you an introduction to the exhibiting artists. The bike tour is free.

Spots are left on the following four tours – email Julian at NextBike to reserve your place!

Ponsonby + Parnell Sat 10 Oct, 9.00am-12.30pm

Parnell + Ponsonby Sat 10 Oct, 1.00pm-4.30pm

K’Rd + Newmarket Sat 17 Oct, 9.00am-12.30pm

Newmarket + K’Rd Sat 17 Oct, 1.00pm-4.30pm

City Riding

And if you love the tours that NextBike is running and would like the confidence to explore the city on bike and by yourself, one of these courses may be for you. It assumes you can already ride, signal and look behind. But maybe you want some ideas on making yourself easier to see, and choosing safe routes in the city.

Sunday 18 October meet at 9.50am for a 10.00am start, returning at 1.00pm

Sunday 8 November meet at 9.50am for a 10.00am start, returning at 1.00pm

As above, email Julian at NextBike to guarantee a spot.
