Ride It Keep it: GTGO Group ride + keep the bike! Totara ParkWant to get into biking but don't have a bike? Thanks to the Auckland Council Climate Grant, Got To Get Out has developed a program called 'Ride It Keep It' to get locals riding on recycled bicycles! ** This invite is to people of all ages, as long as you can already ride a bike but dont have one and will use it. It will be an easy grade bike ride! ** The mission of this program is to reduce Auckland's climate impact, by making it easier for people to ride a bike instead of drive. We are further helping the environment by diverting waste out of landfill and scrap, giving hundreds of old bikes a 'second life' and keeping them in use. A team of mechanics and volunteers at the Got To Get Out Workshop (Glenfield Auckland) are hard at work fixing bikes, and we will bring a selection of refurbished bikes to these free rides. Who gets a bike? Anyone who does not already have a working bike, and will use the bike to get around ideally instead of driving! You can only get one free bike from our event series. You can come to any of our events in this series, you can only get one free one. About the ride: Please note this will be an easy grade bike ride in Auckland. We will ride in Totara Park which will take about 2 hours in total. Details: - Meet at 9:45am (come earlier if you need a bike) as we will ride at 10 sharp - Meet Totara Park Carpark (Redoubt Rd) / (look for the Got To Get Out trailer) - Bike fitting starts once all riders are there, - Bike ride starts when everyone is on a bike, we will do a quick skills session - There may be an opportunity to 'swap bikes' and try a few, though the decision of 'who gets which bike' is made by Got To Get Out staff - Ride ends 1pm thereabouts once we've done the easy trails. QUESTIONS: Do I need to know how to ride? YES! Though it's OK if it's been a while. This activity is not a formal 'lesson', so you need to know how to ride - even if it's been a while since you were last on a bike. There will not be time to teach you how to ride if you have never ridden before. A basic skills session will happen at the start of the ride, but the main purpose of this is to show you how the free bike/s work, as opposed to teaching how to ride. Can you come with your own bike? Absolutely! If you own a bike already, come along and ride too! There are 10 tickets for BYO bikes, and 10 tickets for those who need one. What bike can you keep? You are welcome to 'try out' a few different bikes, but ultimately it will come down to who fits which bike. It would help us if you tell us your size (height) before you come along. We will allocate bikes based on size and intended usage etc, and the decision of who gets which bike is the decision of Got To Get Out staff. We make no promise that your exact size bike will be here but will do a our best to fit each person to a bike. Donate a bike? If you wish to donate a bike, this is a great time to pop along and give us a bike! Just message us prior so we know if the bike is suitable for our needs. Helmets: We will provide helmets for the group ride, but not to keep. We are not funded to provide helmets to keep sorry, so you need to sort out a helmet yourself. It's best you bring a helmet. If you get a bike? If you get a free bike, you need to take it away ON THE DAY. So think about how you will transport it, get it home, lock it up. Also, expect to have to do a survey about your likely use of the bike. If you wish to rehome the bike within one year, it's expected you offer it back to Got To Get Out to gift to someone else. Any questions, please email robert@gottogetout.com You've #gottogetout riding! Thank you Auckland Council Climate Grant.

As a famous scenic spot, the Sky Tower is basically a must visit place! The restaurant is also worth a try, as there are different packages available at different times. It is more convenient to book in advance on the website

The venue area is slightly smaller, but the content is still very rich, and the rainy day is not affected at all. Very suitable for playing with the nearby Mission Bay. The souvenirs inside are very cute and bought several plush 😘

Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour

Auckland War Memorial Museum

Museums

The whole experience is great and it is a good place to understand New Zealand&#39;s history and culture. The museum is quite big, it is worth a long time to visit, there are many interactive exhibits, especially suitable for walking the baby. There is also Chinese service, recommended.

Mount Eden

Mountain climbing

M69***65

Although Mount Eden is not high, it is overlooking the entire Auckland from the top of the mountain and has a particularly wide view. The remains of the crater are clearly visible, and the grass covers it, a peaceful green. It is not difficult to go up all the way. You can also encounter sheep on the hillside. The leisurely appearance makes people unable to take a few more photos. The wind on the top of the mountain is very strong, but it is also very fresh, and the mood is particularly clear. It is the kind of good place that does not need tickets and does not need planning, but can leave a very deep memory.

Auckland Domain

Night view

Central Park in Auckland is not like the landscape park in the city, closer to a natural forest. The linden trails are winding, and the tall trees on both sides make it seem like they have entered the pristine greenery, with thick fallen leaves and soft soil at their feet. The air is full of plant fragrance, suitable for jogging, walking dogs or just walking quietly. There are also several sculptures and small bridges hidden along the way, adding a little fun. Although not far from the city, you can completely get out of the rhythm of the city as soon as you enter the park.
