ACTA

The Auckland Cycle Touring Association offers easy paced, non-competitive rides. We have frequent coffee stops. (It was once suggested that the initials of the Club stood for "Auckland Coffee and Tea Association". However, "Away Cycling - To Adventure" is equally fitting.) There are frequent social events (pot luck dinners, Christmas dinners, fun rides) and we send out a regular rides programme and newsletter. The Annual Subscription is $20.00 per household. **Saturday rides** depart at 9:00am from regular departure points around the city. These rides include a mid-ride café stop, so remember to bring a few dollars. Rides are about 30-40kms and are usually completed by midday. For detailed ride information, view the Club’s website and select ‘Rides Programme’ from the menu. **Sunday rides** depart at 9:00am from differing venues. This is an all-day ride, usually in the country, and can be anything from 50-100kms. A café stop is hopefully included mid-morning. Also, remember to bring your lunch! For detailed ride information, view the Club’s website and select ‘Rides Programme’ from the menu. **Wednesday rides** leave at 9:30am from The Bakehouse Café, Kumeu.

Nb: the usual wednesday rides from kumeu are unchanged. There is also the occasional long weekend away which could see us in places such as Matamata, Whangarei or Otorohanga. We also have a couple of longer tours, up to around 14 days, usually in November and February/March. [Contact *Annette - info@acta.org.nz*](mailto:info@acta.org.nz)undefined routes
