Andrew Dickens Afternoons

LISTEN TO JORDAN BOND TALK WITH ANDREW DICKENS ABOVEA vigilant cyclist on Auckland's Northwestern Cycleway was able to avert danger after vandals created a lethal roadblock using rocks.The popular bike route was closed off by a row of small rocks behind a blind corner and on a downhill section near the Patiki Rd underpass, between Te Atatu and Waterview.The cyclist who spotted and removed the blockage told other cyclists to keep an eye out on the cycleway for more barriers.Bike Auckland was notified of the incident this morning by the cyclist, who cleared the rocks immediately, this morning."Luckily I was going [the] other way so had time to stop. If I/someone was coming downhill it could have been very nasty."There are some serious dick-heads out there," they said.Ugh. Who does this? This has been cleared away, but please look out if you're traveling the NW cycleway.
