Hey neighbours!
Hope you all had a safe and fun Halloween last night!
Reporter Natalie Polley snapped some photos of happy kids dressed up at the Pukekohe Fire Station's annual Halloween event last night. Who went along?
When Will Wara entered the concreting industry four years ago, he never dreamed the job would lead to him sharing a hongi with Prince Harry.

Only one section had a bad review and it was very much so. This was the Paeroa to Thames section with its stupid 57 concrete judder-bar cattle stops. These were considered a "huge spoiler" being "heart in mouth" frightening. Suffice to say word of mouth in the cycling community is very negative and repeat visits highly unlikely.
It is particularly sad, because local businesses such as Tastebud Cafe, The Convenient Cow and The Wharf provide such excellent local support to visitors, only to be let down by the quality of the trail.
Yet councils utterly misguided focus is merely to place expensive artworks along the trail. Te Aroha has some wonderful artworks but these are NOT at all a focus for cyclists. It is the quality of the ride.
Thame's businesses you are being let down.
