Whanau Passport

Extended by popular demand, the Biketober Whanau Passport this year runs throughout the October part of school holidays.  It’s a brilliant school holiday activity, running from 8am Sun Oct 1 to 6pm Sun Oct 8.

Check out the destinations on the Whanau MyPassport page – you can enter for free!  It’s simple to sign in – no need to download an app.

Child feedback is a big thumbs-up for the animated passport stamps! As well as that – and the rewards of being outside as a family – there are great prizes to be won.

You must visit at least five destinations to be in the prize draw.  You’ll mostly be riding in the central city but, for the keen beans, there are a couple of outlying destinations – both on major cycle routes.

If you’d like some extra support, register for one of the free Whanau Passport Guided Rides led by cycling coach Paul Odlin and the Biketober Team. Numbers are strictly limited, so get in quick.
