Encouraging cycling in Kaipātiki

Welcome

Bike Kaipātiki is the local, grass roots representation of Bike Auckland. Our mission is to encourage cycling in the Kaipātiki Local Board area.

We have a diverse member base interested in everything from BMX to mountain biking to commuting to school runs and to competitive riding.

To enable people to enjoy using their bikes around Kaipātiki we…

Advocate

For better facilities on road to help more people from Kaipātiki get around their community safely while enjoying the freedom going by bike brings.

For more recreational facilities including scenic paths, pump tracks and learn to ride facilities.

For a safer community, particularly around schools and town centres, to encourage trips by bike and create a more enjoyable space to spend time.

Support

By offering regular, free drop in bike safety checks and basic maintenance sessions all over Kaipātiki.

By offering guided rides for all abilities, introducing riders to the various shared paths in and around our community and Auckland.

Connect

With people at our various events and public outings.

With our Local Board, MPs and community stakeholders.

With Bike Auckland, Auckland Transport, NZTA and others where appropriate to request better infrastructure in Kaipātiki.

Supporting Climate Action

Recognising the role human transport plays in climate change Bike Kaipātiki promotes sustainable transport modes.

Part of this is ensuring that the bikes people have access to are in a safe, useable condition. We are grateful to the Kaipātiki Local Board for their support to our Popup Bike Hub allowing us to reach more people on bikes.
