It’s Easter and the roads are going to be busy. Because the holiday falls early this year, chances are the weather might be warmer. And that will encourage a lot of motorcycle riders to get out and about.

Brittany Morrow talks about the motorcycle crash that changed her life. Dressed only in basic streetwear, the 20-year-old fell off the back of a ‘bike travelling at 120mph and was partially skinned alive. Brittany speaks eloquently about what happened that day, the aftermath and how she now champions wearing the right protective gear on every ride. Watch it, and please pass on the message to anyone you know who rides. And encourage them to take Ride Forever coaching.

Depending on what options you select, it shows my rates will rise by 20.5% (5.1%/ annum over 4 years) with all options included, or 15.8%(3.9% over 4 years) with no options selected.
No matter what options you take, the percentage increases are well in excess of the CPI. The Reserve Bank inflation calculator shows the CPI increase since the year 2000 at 2.2%, or since 2012 1.1%. Councils around the country seem to think that the Ratepayer community is comfortable with annual increases up to 5%, so therefore aim for something slightly less and then look for applause from the ratepayers for such care!
If you ask Councils to justify the increase being in excess of the CPI, they always refer to the imported cost of Road materials which is probably bitumen products. We all know that oil based products have been much cheaper over the past few years - so why now the increase well in excess of the CPI? Maybe the CEO of Waimakariri District Council could answer this.
