Its not long now until our track Carnival on the 11th of December!
This is a carnival not to be missed as we move into the serious part of the track season before centre and national events start rolling around.
RIDER ANNOUNCEMENT: CARNE GROUBE TO RACE
We are excited to announce that we have CARNE GROUBE riding in A grade this year, as a U19 NZ representative Carne brings a lot of experience to this grade and is always an exciting rider to watch. He will have his eyes on the wheel race win and is experienced in this disipline, being a previous River City Wheel race winner in Wanganui. Keep posted for more exciting rider announcements.
Please spread the word about our carnival with your cycling friends, as there is a decent amount of prizemoney up for grabs thanks to our sponsors Laser plumbing, AEC Engineering and Higgins Concrete.
Full programme can be found here.
