Saltwater Burger Bar on Church St. Bit out of the way but you will struggle to find a better burger in Auckland.

How much was that tax cut to landlords worth again? 🤔

What amazes me about 2023 is that you take away the Anniversary Weekend floods and it is still the wettest year. Incredible.

'21 to '23 was a tough time to build things. Supply shortages (remember the GIB crisis), and especially skilled labour shortages.
Construction sector was at capacity. Maybe they bought more than they could chew.

Bus lanes exist so that busses (efficient), don't get stuck in general traffic (inefficient).

Letting traffic into the bus lanes when there is congestion is a singularly stupid idea.

I use a combo of frame lock and Kryptonite D-lock.

Frame lock is great for when you are popping into a shop for a few minutes. Basically an immobiliser and doesn't require a rack to clamp to.

I use the D-lock when leaving the bike for longer periods or where I can't see it.

Incredible. Just staggering.

Hi, @marcdaalder.bsky.social is my eyeballing correct that if you take out the Jan 27 storm we would still be above 90 percentile?
