New Volunteer Inductions!

We’re now running monthly sessions to better support our growing crew, sharing how RAD works, our kaupapa, and how to get stuck in. It’s a chance for newbies to connect, meet our crew, ask questions, and feel confident to join our community. Click if you’re curious!

RAD @ Crankworx

We were stoked to be invited as community partners for Crankworx at CAP last weekend. We enjoyed showcasing our RADness, connecting with a wider audience, and experiencing some epic riding up close and personal. We even had the chance to make a pro riders’ bike more RAD along the way!

RAD’s Reducing Emissions!

So turns out RAD enables 129-324 tonnes of CO2-equivalent reductions each year, equivalent to the emissions from 895-2,238 one-way flights between AKL-CHCH per passenger! Huge thanks to our UC students for doing this research to help quantify our collective RADness. Click for full report

Rainbow Ride Support!

RAD’s stoked to be part of Rainbow Ride this year. We’re super grateful to be receiving profits from the event (alongside Rainbow Hub Ōtautahi) and would love to support anyone keen to get involved! Come find a bike or get yours ride-ready. We’d love to see you at RAD, and don’t forget to register

Volunteering @ RAD

“Someone asked me the other day what I'll miss most about NZ and without a doubt, I'll miss RAD the most. I arrived in CHCH last year not knowing a soul and feeling quite apprehensive about making friends. However, after my first RAD session, I knew this wasn't going to be an issue. Everyone was so welcoming from the outset and I can't thank you enough for what you've created! I've learnt so much about bikes during the past 16 months and am leaving CHCH with some lifelong friends.”
