Morgans Property Advisors track results Sunday 20 October 2013

The first event on the track cycling calendar for the 2013/2014 season at Johnston Park on Sunday, promised to be a good one with ideal conditions and a fantastic turnout. In addition to lots of new riders, there were four new commissaires who had recently passed their exams and were keen to test their knowledge. The afternoon saw four events take place including a 1 lap standing start, a 2 lap scratch race, and two handicapped races. Races ran smoothly, rookie riders rode safely and on account of a hot track and very little wind, three track records were broken.

Sutton Cup–last race in handicap series

Another cracker day in the Manawatu and some regular and new and old faces appeared on the scene at Ashhurst to see how good the handicapping would be today. With Jaycob Humphreys taking on the role of race manager and overseeing all things, he had a great little team of helpers on the day. Thanks to Louise Ransom and Rebecca Allan for marshalling out on the course and Wayne Fenn for helping on the finish line.

It was nice to be able to relax at the end of the ride at Fusion cafe and enjoy a drink and something to eat while the results for the series were calculated. Prizemoney was then handed out to those that were present and there was only one person not present so that money went back in to the pot to be added to the next series prizemoney.
