Retro Ride 2024 - advice please

Bob Selden from The Greasy Chain Charitable Trust

Hello, Bob Selden here from the Greasy Chain Charitable Trust. Each Wellington Anniversary weekend, the Trust organises a Retro Ride and we have tentatively planned one for Sunday 21st January and I need some help please!
The people who previously organised our last one, are away and we have no-one on our board who has any contacts with retro cycles/cycling. Love to hear from anyone who would like to enter (once we have about 15 at least it will be worth running) and also from anyone who can lend a hand.
The business community in the CBD through their rep body Palmy BID are keen to have the event go ahead, which is great. We’re also fortunate that the Retro Ride would be on the Sunday following the Gravel & Tar on Saturday 20th and preceding the National Criterium Championships held at Massey on Monday 22nd – so there should be quite a few people around who have an interest in cycling.

Please let me know your interest.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
