About The Event
From 11am: Family-friendly cycle ride
Cycle Action Auckland and Frocks on Bikes are organising a big family-friendly bike ride around central Auckland. Meet at 11am at the Wynyard Quarter playground. There will be a limited number of bikes available to borrow for the ride thanks to www.nextbikes.co.nz. Cyclists will arrive back at QEII Square in downtown Auckland by 1pm to join in the parade to Albert Park.
From 1pm: People-powered parade up Queen Street
Cyclists, walkers, skateboarders, roller skaters and more from around the city will parade together up Queen Street with signs and banners calling for action to address climate change by moving New Zealand beyond fossil fuels.
From 2pm: Celebration in Albert Park
The people-powered parade will make its way to Albert Park, where there will be live music, entertaining speakers, a vegetarian sausage sizzle, coffee and cold drinks available to purchase (cash only).
You can follow the whole journey, or join in anywhere along the way.
For all parts of the day, we challenge you to come dressed up as your favourite fossil fuel alternative.
Let's create a visual spectacle of human wind turbines, etc.
Or keep it simple and decorate yourself with the unifying symbol for the worldwide Moving Planet day: arrows to symbolise moving away from fossil fuels.
We'll have some face paint on hand at the cycle ride and parade gathering points for the young and young at heart.
Come show your support for moving New Zealand beyond fossil fuels - make your voice heard!
If we don't change them, we'll end up where they're taking us !
