CCE update
We had the SPARC interviews today for the CCE.
It all seemed to go well.
We won’t find out whether we got the nod for another three weeks or so.
Track Cycling Results – 15 Mar 2011
If this season was to be remembered for anything it would have to be the fantastic conditions and tonight was no exception with little cloud cover a very light westerly and a mild temperature. The stellar performance of the night was from an age group rider that was thrust into an all in final handicap race at the limit mark and held on to take the race by less than a 100 metres. The tailing off of the season was more apparent with only 13 riders making it to the meeting. Next week will be the final race night of the season and will have prize money available for selected races.
The official New Zealand code for cyclists
The NZTA have The official New Zealand code for cyclists.
They describe it as a “user-friendly guide to New Zealand’s traffic law and safe driving practices” for cyclists.
Why not take a look. It covers many topics, including bunch riding and “the car door zone”
Cycling is a great way to get around and a sport enjoyed by more than a million New Zealanders.
If only three in 100 people took up cycling instead of driving, New Zealand would save more than 1 billion dollars per year!
Cycling is the pollution solution that improves your health, increases your productivity at school or work, and enhances the safety of your community.
Every time you ride, you have an opportunity to help encourage a cycle friendly culture. Don’t underestimate the impact that a wink or a smile and a wave can have on motorists’ attitudes to cyclists.
Practice your skills and take care of your bike following this code, and enjoy a lifetime of cycling through beautiful New Zealand.
