Polynesian Cycling Celebration, 3rd - 11th November 2022

Here in Aotearoa we have teamed up with Mr Tee of Tee Thrive to lead out on this exciting initiative.  We'll cycle from Mangere to Porirua and along the way share the kaupapa.

Let's rally all Polynesian people's who ride a bike-pathway, MTB, road bike-any bike including those who fix bikes and support community cycling initiatives too. 

Cycling is good for your health and wellbeing, social cohesion and the environment. 
​
"Pedalling Polynesians" are here to stay!

​

OUR GOALS

Celebrate and share everything Polynesian about cycling-riders-champions, walkers, scooters, commuters, bikes in schools, community and road safety.

Share our individual and community messages to talanoa, have regular health checks and be active in some shape or form to benefit you and your aiga
