2nd Long Endurance Training Ride – 12 Oct 2019
We are less than 3 weeks out from the 2nd long endurance training ride to Pongaroa on Saturday 12 October, so it’s now time to register.
The reason that you are required to register for this ride as that we are having our lunches supplied by Bike Manawatu sponsor Rosebowl Bakery, and we need definite numbers. We are doing it this way because there has been a lot of interest in the ride, and unfortunately the pub will not be able to get us all fed and back on the road quickly. We will be stopping at the Pongaroa Domain for lunch.
The cost for the ride will be $20, and that is to cover the costs of the lunches, support vehicle and driver/mechanic. The $20 is payable to the driver on the day.
If you want to attend this ride, you must register by Wednesday 9 October as we will not be taking any registrations on the day.
We will be meeting at 7am on Saturday 12 October in the Bike Barn carpark, and you are able to put a small bag in the van with anything that you might need on the day. We will split in to groups based on ability, but everyone will be catered for. Register now by clicking the link below – we’d love to see you.
