Hi neighbours,

An exciting way to stay active during the Covid-19 lockdown, explore Auckland and win prizes has arrived in the form of the Street Art Bike Challenge.

To participate people simple need to snap a photo of themselves, their bike, a piece of street art, and share the photo with the hashtag #streetartbikechallenge.

The event will run throughout October and aims to encourage people to cycle around the city and stay active throughout the Covid-19 lockdown.

It is being hosted by EcoMatters Bike Hubs, who have compiled a map of over 200 street art pieces around Auckland to get people started.

Over $1000 worth in prizes are up for grabs. Will you be participating in the Street Art Bike Challenge?

Does a low interest rate equate to positive cash flow?

Before going ahead with the provider who has the lowest rate consider the impact of the suggested term on your cash flow. A low rate on a loan with a short term, which suits the lender and is not aligned to the life of the asset may result in negative cash flow. Positive cash flow and profitability may be more achievable when the finance structure is aligned to the economic life of the asset and your intended use.

Hi Neighbours,

A new online butchers has just been released and is servicing greater Auckland (and beyond). They have a huge range and are offering FREE DELIVERY for any orders above $100.00. I have been using their meat for ages and the quality is excellent (far better in my opinion that you can get from the supermarket, while prices are very reasonable) and so the delivery under the current lockdown situation is a god send.
Thoroughly recommend you support this new local business.
They can be found online at www.peninsulameats.co.nz...
Stuart :-)
