SUMMARY:Big Screen Cuisine - CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately this event has been cancelled due to extreme weather. Sorry\, folks – we’ll try again next year!  \nFor this event\, the Falls Carpark on Alderman Drive in Henderson will be transformed into an open-air cinema for local families to enjoy\, with food trucks\, entertainment\, and family favourite Ratatouille lighting up the big screen. \nBest of all\, instead of a drive-in movie\, it’s a walk-in\, bike-in\, bus-or-train-to event! \nThe movie starts at 6pm at The Falls Carpark. \nArriving by bike or on foot? Check out the Bike Auckland Discovery Trail along the Henderson Creek path and the Opanuku Stream path for a jazzed-up journey.  From 4-6pm these two paths will feature pop-up arts and circus activities – visit the action stations to collect tokens that you can swap for food truck discounts and VIP seating at the movie. \nAlso: two group rides will be meeting at 4pm to head to the movie along the paths\, and then home again afterwards around 8pm. If you’d like to ride with a group: \n\nmeet Bike Te Atatu at the Te Atatu Underpass on the NW cycleway.\nmeet the Westy Wheelers at the entrance of the Opanuku Stream Path on Henderson Valley Rd.\n\nWe recommend checking your bikes in advance\, and getting there in good time to set off with the groups at 4pm. \nFor more information see www.panuku.co.nz or check out photos and updates on the Facebook event page. If you’re local to Henderson and keen to learn more about local bike events\, join the local group. \nGrab your friends and family\, get on your bikes and join us for a great night out! \nThis event is part of EcoWest Festival 2018\, with more than 100 events across West Auckland.\n For all events\, see www.ecowest.org.nz \n \n

SUMMARY:Smales Farm to Albany Social Ride
DESCRIPTION:The Bike Kaipatiki team invites you on a social bike ride to explore the less frequently travelled upper reaches of Kaipatiki! \nThis year\, we may have special guests along\, in the form of cousins Matthieu and Quentin from France – they’re cycling around the globe to raise awareness of the harm plastic does to the environment and to encourage us to reduce\, reuse and recycle. We hope they’ll be able to give the group more information at either Altura or Columbus. To find out more about their project see: \nhttps://www.facebook.com/cycletorecycleplastic/\nhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqQEmwpkCgIN2TlaDyTKMmQ \nStarting from and returning to Columbus Coffee at Smales Farm\, our route will take in:\n– A close-up of some remarkable architecture\n– Weird sculptures in a wetlands renovation\n– Bush scenes that will make you think you’re in back-blocks NZ\n– A strange subterranean tunnel more reminiscent of a Hobbit movie\n– A stunning lake\n– High performance sport in action\n– Bucolic scenes you surely wouldn’t expect in the heart of a metropolis. \nCome and join us on a voyage of discovery into parts of the Shore you perhaps never knew existed\, or at least probably haven’t seen from the saddle of a bike. \nStarting at 8am from Smales (where you may want to drive to with your bike on a rack)\, we’ll make our way north using as many off-road paths as we can. Unfortunately\, of necessity there will be some parts of the route where we’re on the road and sharing with cars\, so you need to be comfortable about riding on the road. There will also be some hills\, but we’ve kept the gradients as easy as possible. \nYou’ll be in a group with a ride leader and Tail-End-Charlie who will ensure we all keep together as safely as possible. If you lack a bit of fitness or road confidence – don’t worry. We’ll all stay together to maximise the enjoyment. This isn’t a race\, and there will be plenty of stops to look at the attractions and catch a breather. \nFrom Smales Farm\, we’ll ride north for an hour or so\, arriving at Altura Cafe in Douglas Alexander Parade where the team from Bike Albany are welcome to join us for a coffee. After suitable refreshments we’ll return to Smales via the same route. No problems if some participants would like to return home independently from Altura. \nHope you can join us – will be good to get a ride in before winter starts to bite. And the weather? The odd shower won’t put us off\, but if it’s thoroughly miserable we’ll cancel. Keep an eye on the Bike Kaipatiki Facebook page for details. See you at Smales from 7.30am for a pre-ride coffee to make a start at 8am. \nThis ride is part of Ecofest North.

SUMMARY:Big Cock Ride for Blue September
DESCRIPTION:When people hear Carl Wells creates Strava Art (i.e. by riding a route that draws a picture on the Strava map)\, a fairly common reaction is ‘haha\, you should draw a giant penis’. LOL. \nOne such conversation was overheard by Carl’s friend Tim\, a fellow musician in the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra. In a stroke (or two) of brilliance\, he commissioned Carl on the spot to design what they’re calling the Big Cock Ride. \nTim survived a prostate cancer scare a few years back\, and ever since he’s been putting on an excellent annual charity in support of Blue September. His annual event at the Red Rabbit Coffee Co is awesome: a live Blues Brothers band\, delicious food and beer\, with 100% of funds collected going to the charity. And this year – for the first time – it’ll be preceded by the Big Cock Ride. \nJoin the first annual Schlong-a-thon! Grab your bicycle and GPS\, and join Carl in drawing the biggest cock’n’balls ever to disgrace the city of Auckland – and all in a good cause. Come together to be part of something huge! \nWhere\, when and how to join in \nAny rider ambitious enough to go the full length should be ready to ride from the Red Rabbit at 1pm on Saturday 29 September 2018.  You’ll arrive back at the cafe by around 3pm\, just as the band and festivities begin. \nTo sign up and get involved\, join the event pages on Strava and Facebook.  \nThe ride is about 30k and is recommended as suiting riders who use clip-in pedals and are comfortable riding in traffic. \nEven if you can’t make it on the day\, please consider supporting Blue September by donating to support this impressive effort! \nQuestions? Contact Carl. \nNote from Carl: for artistic purposes\, the actual route will differ very slightly from image above\, as there is no straight line route through Grey Lynn. But\, when using a GPS computer\, if you pause it mid-ride and resume at a different location\, the software (on Strava) draws a straight line between the two points. Hence the two straight lines in the ‘art’.  Between marking those points\, we conveniently ride up the Nelson St protected bike lane\, Lightpath\, and the Northwestern Cycleway. On the return route\, after completing the ‘nuts’\, we come back on the NW cycleway again\, and down the Grafton Gully. Tricks of the trade!

SUMMARY:Nutters Ride West
DESCRIPTION:Last year gale force winds stopped us from venturing west to explore the Twin Streams Path in Henderson. Now we’re back and ready to give it another go. \nWe will meet outside the Corban Estate Arts Centre and go on a leisurely jaunt along the path. We’ll finish where we started and have a coffee and chat at the cafe at Corban Estate Arts Centre. \nThis isn’t a hard ride so don’t feel you need to be a lycra-wearing uber cyclist to join in. If you are a lycra-wearing uber cyclist\, you are more than welcome to join us. \nIf you live centrally and want to meet as a group to take the train to Henderson we can arrange that. \nNutters Ride Together is a group of people from all walks of life who enjoy leisurely bike rides. We’re also people living with or supporting those with mental illness. Our aim is to meet on a monthly basis and create a community of nutters who ride together.
