Kids from across Auckland have smashed a record previously held by the British after forming the world's largest human image of a bicycle.
Neary 1800 students, parents and staff gathered at Glen Eden Intermediate today to break the record previously held by Kenilworth School, Sixth form and Warwickshire Country Staff. The previous record was just 1148 people. The Aucklanders managed 1799.
The huddle held for five minutes to break the Guinness World Record with support from Konini, Oratia and Kaurilands Primary. An adjudicator and witnesses were on site for the event captured on a drone.
Auckland Transport's Manager for Walking, Cycling and Road Safety spokesperson Kathryn King said the record breaker is one step towards a sustainable transport future in the city.
"These kids are the future beneficiaries of the intensive planning and building phase we are in."
