Kia ora e te whānau!

Te Wiki o te Reo Māori — Māori Language Week — starts today and runs through to 20 September, with this year's theme Ake, Ake, Ake: A Forever Language.

Swipe through for a few words to take with you next time you're at the hub ☺️

Wīra (wheels), mekameka (chain), pōtae mārō (helmet), hānara (handlebar) — and the word for the whole thing: paihikara, bicycle.

Try at least one of them out loud this week.

Eke tātou, let's ride!

Picture this: no carpark scrum, no idling in the pick-up line, kids strapped in and grinning the whole way.

Our Go Ebike Loans programme includes three cargo/family models: Tern Quick Haul, eZee Expedir, Yuba Supercargo.

Free to borrow for two weeks, no strings attached (except a $250 refundable security deposit).

With the spring school holidays two weeks away, now's a good time to try one.

Spring has sprung! 🌱

Which around here means one thing: bike season is back.
