Track Chit Chat- Sept 2015

Track Chit Chat- Sept 2015

An amazing effort – the greatest ever success by junior riders from the Manawatu from the Junior Worlds in Astana.

Campbell Stewart, 2 gold medals in Scratch race and Omnium!!

Michaela Drummond, gold in teams pursuit and a world record, congratulations plus!!

Thanks for the great effort and the turn out for the track clean- over 20 people. The wetness of the day didn’t damper the enthusiasms.

There has been a big effort by myself, helped by Liam Brown and Kane Welch in cleaning out the clubrooms and getting rid of a lot of junk. Floors have been painted and a extra rack for bikes has have been installed – you will be supplied how much better it looks now!
