Cycling - U3A Browns Bay Group

Our members take turns organising a ride within the greater Auckland area for the first Wednesday of each month. Usually around 2-3 hours on cycling / shared paths and avoiding traffic wherever possible. There’s always time to consider local points of interest, both scenic and cultural. Many members are surprised at how many quiet and enjoyable rides there are around our city from Orewa to Manukau. We always stop somewhere for coffee and conversation as part of each excursion. Annually we organise a 2 - 3 day trip further afield which is always great fun.

In June 2021 the group had a stand at the ‘Have a go’ day in the Heart of the Bays (community rooms) Browns Bay. Members of the group were there to share groups aspirations and to solicit potential new U3A members.
