Well what happened today...We went on a bit of an adventure on the other side of the harbour. We grabbed one of the hire electric bikes from Bike Otago and we decided to head over Highcliff road towards Portobello and met Kashi's mum for a mothers day picnic. Seeing the harbour on one side and the wild sea on the other was very divine by bike. There are some beautiful little cottages and properties. Lots of things for kids to look at like horses and sheep and even diggers. I wasn't quite used to the bike, as I normally ride the little folding one. This one was a bit big for me I felt, but it still got up that...
The 13/14 season was a great time for Enduro in NZ.

We've just sold this Pedego Cruiser and we're very sad to see it go. Electric bikes never looked so good, or rode so well!Check out our electric bike range here.
We're now supplying Revelate Designs bikepacking gear! Seatpacks, framebags, top-tube bags, and bar-mounted bags. Check out this Pika seatpack!What's bikepacking? The short answer is: backpacking with a bike. Traditional 'rack and panniers' type gear doesn't work with full-suspension mountain bikes, so bikepacking bags attach directly to the seatpost, frame triangle, or handlebar, meaning you can carry your tent and supplies for anything from an overnight ride with your mates to a months-long off-road adventure. Bike Otago's resident bikepacker is Lewis, who has ridden his mountain bike across most of Europe and some of New Zealand.
