Track Cycling Results–25 Jan 2010

After a wet and windy weekend tonight’s conditions were taken directly from the box marked “Stellar” with a warm clear sky and a slight breeze from the preferred direction. With the year starting to take some shape and people returning to routines the 32 cyclists present, represented the best turnout for the season. The spectator numbers were also boosted making for what appeared to be a crowd on the embankment set for another nights entertaining competitive racing. Four cyclists plus supporters made the trip from Wanganui again this week, among their number was 74 year old Victor Possee complete with carbon fibre bike and rear disc wheel.

Update on WCNI Road champs and ITT Champs

Hi All

First of all, my sincere apologies for the absolute lack of communication regarding the WCNI events:

I think the best process for me and everyone at your end is to (if you already haven’t) – register riders on-line through our website…

Directions:
www.cyclingwanganui.org.nz
Click on the Tab: WCNI Champs 2011
Click on the Tab: Time Trial (for race details)
Click on the Tab: TT Entry (enter all your riders, or you could ask your riders to do this for you)
and/or
Click on the Tab: Road Race (for race details)
Clike on the Tab: RR Entry (enter all your riders, or you could ask your riders to do this for you)

Once entries close off (5 April 5:00pm)  I will send each club who has enrolled and the total amount due $

As I have had problems collecting money from riders who attended the WCNI track champs and due to personal commitments on the weekend of these champs I will be unable to collect your money therefore all riders from Bike Manawatu will need to pay on the day.

On the day of racing we will get all the riders (or parents as appropriate to age group) to sign the Waiver for the entire 2 day event (this is a lot easier than dealing with lots of ‘paper’ registration entries.

We still require assistance with officials etc on the day including timers etc, (especially on second day for the Road Race) so if you are able to assist or know of some parents who don’t mind, can you please let me know.

If you require any more information please do not hesitate to contact me 063446187 or 027 2847889 or just flick me an e-mail.

Kind Regards
Tina
WCC Secretary

ps:  I am updating the Website tonight…  with some more information so hopefully will cover most things…

Coaching

Bike Manawatu is wanting to develop a coaching structure that has the ability to assist the development of all club members, novice or masters, recreational or competitive.

In order to do this we require feedback from club members:-

Coaching can be extremely rewarding, and provides a fantastic opportunity to ‘give back’ to the sport through developing others.
