Oh - wee Toby was sick yesterday. And today isn't looking any better - but he has a science test. So he is hauling himself off to school for that - but will probably head home after that. He also has an orthodontist appointment today. Doh!

| Waitangi Park for the first awards |
Tuesday was frantic at work - how does that happen? Anyway, the exciting part was the bike awards. After my initial thoughts along the lines of: why did I say yes to this?, I went along at 6pm. There I learned the plan was to ride in a huge bunch from Te Aro Bike Junction to Waitangi Park (have some awards), then to Frank Kitts for more awards and to have a minister from the coalition appear. Then Civic Square for more awards. Then back to Bike Junction.

| Oh - we won! |
It actually worked out really well. And when we got to Civic Square, it turns out we wont he big prize. I had to go up in my fetching bike gear and accept. Lucky they didn't require a speech. We won for being super bike friendly at work. Nice effort. And we have an e-bike for a week (Mon - Fri) from Switched On Bikes. Thank you!

Back to Bike Junction where we heard from the minister. Good on her. And the bike advocates that do such a great job trying to sway the masses.
Anyway, I rode home and got home just after 9pm. Crashed into bed - but I never slept well. Maybe it was all the excitement.
Hope Toby does ok today.
Enjoy your day.
Love,
Angela
