I want to be able to ride my bike around Christchurch and feel safe and accepted; I want children to be able to ride their bikes to school; I want cycling to be mainstream; I want riding a bicycle to be a simple practical choice for my friends, family and whanau. I support significant investment in cycling to help achieve these aims in Christchurch.

If we're not going to take mass public transport seriously lets at least get some decent bike lanes setup so we can get around our city safely. Cycling is fun, good for the environment, reduces traffic and keeps you fit. How many more reasons do we need?

I haven't cycled since I was knocked off my bike by an impatient driver about 4 years ago. If it was separated from cars I'd probably cycle again.

I'm new to cycling and love how safe I feel on the seperated cycle ways in place and the rest of the way I will use the footpath as feel unsafe with no clear cycle lanes. Please keep building them for novices to feel more comfortable getting out of their cars.

Road safety is so important. Encouraging a healthy lifestyle is important. Please ensure cyclists are as safe as they can be when using roads in Canterbury.

Hundreds of hospital staff cycle to to work each day. We just want to be able to get in to do our job and home again without fear of death or injury. Please ensure that we can do so.

Cycling is a fantastic way to keep fit and healthy. It is a very Eco friendly travel option. Cyclist are more social.
