Ditching the car - Helping the Kids

  • To all you donors thanks so much

    Well, the first Joy ride has come and gone and together we have raised over 20K.

    Amazing ah.

    That means because of your generous donation kids in really vulnerable communities will have festivals to go to, sports gear to share in the parks, craft gear to create with and fun events to participate in making their colourful communities a bit more fun and exciting.

    So on behalf of those communities thank you. You all dug deep and made this world just a little bit better.

    Well done.

    John

  • Week 2

      18 October 2021

    A week of extremes - cold and windy, cycling in gumboots, warm and calm in shorts and t-shirt: home to work Monday - Friday = 77km; Supermarket 2x = 1.9km; Dad's = 1.5km; Meeting = 2.8km. Total = 83.2km (doesn't include a 14.8km walk from my house to the Sign of the Kiwi on the Port Hills and back with my sister - all without a car!)

    Benefit to health and society so far = $232.29

    Total car costs avoided = $126.56

  • Week 1

      10 October 2021

    Such a big thanks to supporters - so grateful!

    A relatively straight forward week bike-wise without any extras: home to work (7.7km) and back again Monday - Friday yielded 77km for the week.

    Benefit to health and society = $111.65

    Car costs avoided = $60.83
