This is a fully off-road, paved & scenic route. About 16km (one way) with options for more riding, or you could catch the train back to Kingsland from Henderson Station.
All bikes welcome, this is a no-drop ride at a social pace. Follow the link for full details and RSVPs.
Please note: This ride is for the queer community. It is for riders over 16 years old, and you’ll need to have your own bike and helmet to take part.

Picnic with Pals
2026-03-15 16:00 - 18:30
Join your friendly gaybourhood Bike Pals for a casual group ride from Kingsland to Pt Chev for an afternoon picnic.
Ride will be a cruisy 8km through the western suburbs (mostly shared paths, some quiet streets) with other queer pals. Mostly flat, paved and suitable for all bikes!
This one will be less about the ride and more about having some chill time in the park together. Bring us your burning questions, big ideas, or just bring yourself! We’ll have snacks, music, and some games up our sleeves if the vibe is right.
Free – but registrations are essential. Please note that Bike Pals rides are queer and adult-focused.

e-Bike Guided Ride
2022-10-27 10:00 - 14:00
Date: October 27th, 2022
Time: 10am – 2pm
Location: Nixon Park Carpark, Cnr of Fourth Avenue & Central Road, Kingsland, Auckland
Our popular e-Bike Guided Rides get people on bikes to help them experience the joy of riding. This ride includes a number of stops at venues that are taking part in the Auckland Climate Festival. The guided rides are free, and made possible by Auckland Transport.
They are perfect for riders who are already comfortable riding a push-bike and provide a great opportunity to learn more about e-bikes. E-bikes are taking the cycling world by storm – they flatten out Auckland’s many hills, allow the rider to go further and faster, all whilst being able to arrive at a destination looking and feeling fresh.
These rides go around the central city loop, taking in and showcasing some of Auckland’s best cycling infrastructure that gives access to so many places to work and play.
The ride takes 2 hours and covers approx 10 kms, with an additional 2 hours for visiting places of interest in the Auckland Climate Festival.
