Dutch Week Orange Day Bike Ride - Kāpiti
Otaihanga Domain, Paraparaumu, Kapiti Coast
SAT 02 MAY 10:00 A.M. - 11:00 A.M.
The Orange Bike Ride is back again and will be held in Otaihanga Domain and along the Waikanae River. All ages are welcome. Please start gathering from 9:45am so we can have a prompt start. Prizes will be available for the best-dressed bike and person, preferably orange. There will be free Dutch biscuits/snacks available for participants and visitors. Coffee Cruisers will be serving Darkhorse Coffee. The Orange Bike Ride aims to promote cycling as a sustainable means of transport which helps us to address climate change through a standout and enjoyable family-oriented event connecting New Zealanders with the local Dutch communities in as many regions as possible across Aotearoa New Zealand. The bike course will be a short loop around the Waikanae River Trails, completely off-road, with marshalls guiding the way. It is suitable for cyclists of all ages. The event forms part of the annual Dutch Week festival, which will be held from 25 April to 3 May 2025, celebrating all things Dutch such as culture, language, heritage and food, highlighting the strong connections between the Netherlands and Aotearoa New Zealand. It aims to share Dutch culture and contributions of local Dutch communities and businesses in a diverse Aotearoa New Zealand. For further details please email Jake Roos: [email protected]
