“I’ve never seen so many people on bikes,” says Napier’s Garrett Chan from behind the counter of his family’s business, Cool Toys.
Garrett was helping his dad Glen out when they opened their Napier inner-city store for business last Friday.
“We had no power at first. It wasn’t too bad.
We had customers from Wairoa and Gisborne who were stuck here.”
Glen says people, including regulars, were buying board games.
“We kept the kids entertained and some came back in to say goodbye. One was towing a caravan over the Gentle Annie. A few people were coming in to use the charger.”
