How are they going to build a bike trail the length of NZ, when we cant even ride over the Harbour bridge?
Last weekend a bunch of people stormed across the Auckland Harbour bridge on foot and bike.
Listen to these podcasts on national radio. The first interview is by Rowan Quinn who talks to Bevan Woodward from the "Get across campaign".
The second interview by Sean Plunket is with Wayne McDonald, the "Regional Director for Northland and Auckland" at Tranzit New Zealand.
Hear Wayne McDonald say that the plan is to wait another 30 years before doing anything about a walk-way or cycleway.
You can hardly blame people for getting a bit militant.
