PalmyLink is a proposition for a new form of transportation in Palmerston North, by creating a gondola ride that would run from Massey University down Fitzherbert Ave and into the city. It’s being promoted as a eco-friendly solution to the large amount of vehicle traffic up and down Fitzherbert Ave.

Sustainable Manawatu was at Massey Palmerston North, to test the skills of students on the crazy “backwards bike”.

I would also like to thank all of the Massey students that took time out of their common break to come and have a talk to us, and also to those of you that didn’t mind making complete fools of yourselves in trying to ride our crazy bike.
SM will have a stall set up at which you will be able to obtain information on the organisation as well as participate in some of the activities we offer, like the bike challenge where successful riders will be rewarded. We will also be featuring the winner of the schools’ colouring competition that was running during the previous week.
