A non-profit organisation who is the "independent voice for cycling in Auckland" has taken a cheeky dig at motorists who are stuck in traffic due to a massive fire in the city.
Traffic in Auckland's CBD is gridlocked after main roads and motorway on-ramps were closed because of a huge fire, which is still out of control, at SkyCity Convention Centre.
Bike Auckland, which advocates for a better city on bikes, took the incident as an opportunity to point out that cyclists are easily getting around Auckland CBD — while others are stuck in traffic.
