🚲 The Big Fancy Bike Ride – Auckland at Play Edition 🎩🎉
🗓 Saturday, 4th October 2025
🕛 Meet at 12PM | Ride departs shortly after
📍 Start: Khartoum Place | Auckland CBD | End: Western Springs Park.

Come ride with us as we take up space on Tāmaki Makaurau’s streets in style!

As part of the Auckland Heritage Festival 2025, we’re inviting everyone to dress up and roll out in celebration of this year’s theme: “Auckland at Play”. Led by women and welcoming all, we’ll traverse Auckland’s streets, highlighting heritage sites and shared spaces. This year, we honor the 75th anniversary of the Empire Games, connecting past and present through the spirit of play. Whether you channel the bold spirit of the 1890s suffragettes or the playful flair of 1950s sports fashion, come ride with joy, visibility, and community.

👒 Theme: Vintage vibes – from Victorian bloomers to 50s sportswear.
🏛️ Route: From Khartoum Place (a tribute to Kate Sheppard and women’s rights) to Western Springs Park

All welcome – led by women and open to anyone who believes in joyful, inclusive streets.

🎉 Let’s make history by celebrating it — on two wheels.
📣 Keep an eye on this event for route updates, costume inspo, and volunteer call-outs.
