• Probably won't go much further with it than have already done

Cycle Action Whakatane/BikeWise

Presented by: Richard Hamer (Cycle Action Whakatane)

Inspired by attending a workshop earlier this year, with presentations from Model Communities (Paul McArdle & New Plymouth District Council).  As a result, started two projects:

• Bikes in Schools- like swimming, bikes for use in school; including maintenance schedule
• bike park

BikeWise- two locals in Whakatane got the contract to look after the national BikeWise website.

Two main events:

• Big Bike Fix Up
• Leading Light campaign
