After Lime scooters, Lime e-bikes are coming to Christchurch
Christchurch will join London, Berlin and Rome next week when a fleet of Lime e-bikes arrive in the city.
One hundred electric pedal-assist bikes will be available for hire, each coming with a helmet, a lock and lights. They will cost $1 to unlock and 38 cents per minute to use, the same price as Lime's e-scooters.
The bikes will have a range of 30 to 60 kilometres and people can hire them using the Lime or Uber apps.
Will you be trying the new e-bikes? Why or why not? Read more here and let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
