Thanks to the Wellingtonian for the image.

Wellington’s funtimes creator, Chris Morley-Hall, came to talk to us about what films will be showing at . So I also took the opportunity to chat with him about some of the crazy moments at the legendary Cuba st. Carnival, the Whopper Chopper Seaside Extravaganza’s and riding around town in a bath.

Ashley Burgess – Wellington’s favourite cyclist

No wonder mountain bike instructor Ashley Burgess has won “Wellington’s favourite cyclist”, as her efforts in encouraging women, girls and kids onto bikes are extraordinary. She is part of and set up bike groups like , WORD Wellington Offroad Riding Department, and Pedal Ready which gets kids ready for cycling. I don’t think we can do without her.
