One day Transport NZ might listen..

[crazycanuck]

I guess I didn't read the article that well

In a way i'm happy they held up traffic on the Harbour Bridge..Auckland's a pretty poorly designed city in my view & I think motorists deserve something like this once in a while.

When we lived in Auckland, there didn't seem to be any attempt at improving public transport( do NOT get me started on the trains AGGGHGH..they couldn't even give a general indication if the trains would ever arrive!!!!)!

If we ever moved back to NZ, there'd be no freakin way i'd ever ride on the Auckland roads!!! I hated riding on Mt Albert Road UGH. Riding on the shore wasn't too bad...

It would be all mtn biking!!!

Yes I ride with the MCVCC, currently just moved to Singapore for the next 6 months- strangely enough I think I am going to miss the hills..

Anyway cycling in Auckland isn't all bad. Mt Albert Rd now have a cycle path marked on it so its a bit better. I did/do most of my riding in South Auckland around the Hunuas/Clevedon/Pukekohe way and that's heaps nicer- quiet country roads.

You cannot knock Auckland too much, building on area with two habours, lots of volcanic cones and natural choke points is not easy.
