Shop by bicycle in Te Atatū (Peninsula or South) in March, take a photo of your trip, upload it to social media using the hashtag #buycycleteatatu and be in to win prize money to spend at the shops. We’ll print your photo and include it in the exhibition.
Instructions:
Your photo must be taken between 1st and 31st March, somewhere in Te Atatū Peninsula or Te Atatū South, showing that you have shopped by bicycle. For example, your bike outside a shop; your helmet and your purchase inside the shop; your bike and your purchase somewhere else in the area. Be creative!
You can enter as many trips/photos as you like and each entry qualifies for the prize draw.
You can add any caption you like to the photo: we may print some or all of these when we print the photos.

Prizes:
- $100 voucher: 1st prize for best photo. Get creative!
- 4 x $50 vouchers. These are drawn at random from all the entries. So the more photos you enter, the better your chances!
