Meet the All Aboard Action Alliance Members: Bike Auckland

At All Aboard, we believe that transforming transport in Aotearoa requires a united effort – and we're proud to be joined by powerful partners in our mission. One of those is Bike Auckland, a long-standing champion for safer, more accessible, and more enjoyable cycling in Tāmaki Makaurau.

Who is Bike Auckland?

Bike Auckland is the independent voice for people on bikes in Auckland. For more than 20 years, they’ve been working to make cycling a safe, viable, and appealing everyday transport option. Their mahi goes beyond infrastructure advocacy – it’s about reimagining our streets and reshaping our city to work better for everyone.

From pushing for protected bike lanes and better-connected cycle networks, to supporting grassroots events and building a strong, inclusive bike culture, Bike Auckland is helping create a more liveable, climate-friendly Auckland.

Why Bikes Matter

As Bike Auckland puts it: people on bikes make for a better city. That’s because when more of us ride, we all benefit – cleaner air, healthier communities, quieter streets, and less traffic for those who still need to drive. More bikes mean more freedom for tamariki to get to school safely, more independence for those who can’t or don’t drive, and more joyful movement in our everyday lives.

Bike Auckland champions all of this – not just for current riders, but for everyone who wants to give biking a go but doesn't yet feel safe or supported.

Real Impact on the Ground

Bike Auckland's advocacy has been instrumental in many of the cycling improvements we see in the city today – from the Northcote Safe Cycle Route to the Lightpath Te Ara I Whiti and beyond. They work closely with councils, communities, and partner organisations (like us!) to make change happen.

They also bring the fun – hosting events like Bikes & Beers, Bike Raves, and community rides that celebrate the joy of cycling and invite more people into the movement.

A Shared Vision

At All Aboard, we know that cycling – along with walking, public transport, and shared mobility – is essential to building a decarbonised, accessible transport system that puts people and the planet first. That’s why we’re thrilled to have Bike Auckland as part of the All Aboard Action Alliance.

Together, we’re working toward streets that are safer for all, a system that works for the climate, and a future where getting around doesn’t cost the earth.

Want to Come On Board? 

The All Aboard Action Alliance welcomes organisations who share our vision to decarbonise the transport system in Aotearoa. Together, we share knowledge, collaborate on initiatives and advocate for safer, fairer, and low-carbon transport solutions that support thriving communities and a healthy planet.
