Who are we?
We are everyday cyclists, recreational cyclists, occasional cyclists, commuter cyclists, and would-be cyclists in North Taranaki, and we're here to talk about biking.
We know that we all win when more people bike, more often.
This group is a space to chat cycling, learn from each other, and work together to increase the profile of cycling in local government decision-making.
We're affiliated with the Cycling Action Network (CAN), a nationwide group that provides a voice for cyclists in Aotearoa New Zealand.
WhAT DO WE DO?
At North Taranaki Cycling Advocates, we ride bikes for many different reasons - for transport, for fun, to reduce our emissions - but we come together in our belief that we can create communities where getting on a bike is a quick, easy, and fun way to move around for many day-to-day activities. We work together to make cycling easier, safer, and more visible in Taranaki by:
Providing cycling advocacy to our local councils and committees
Pushing for improvements to cycle infrastructure and creation of safe, separated, and signposted cycle routes
Supporting cycling as a mode of transport with other bike infrastructure (e.g. parking, storage, etc.)
Showing the community how wonderful riding a bike can be and encouraging people to give it a go.
