School cycling results Akers road 29 May
Good weather, great turn out 64 riders and a nice little circuit were the ingredients for good racing. A grade could not get a single moment of rest with Mike McRedmond and Luke McCarthy riding a long them on their motor bike firing them up. At the end a two men break away Jaycob Humphreys and Matiu Kaihau battled it out for the line honours with Jaycob being the fastest on the day.Thanks to the helpers on the day very much appreciated. B grade had a good solid race. The bunch stayed together the whole race. This gave a peloton sprint finish. To keep it as fair and save as possible it is important to keep a straight line and not to look around when engaged in the sprint. Not doing so leads to disqualification. C grade a decent bunch of younger riders. The 4 D graders were scaled up and started with the C grade. After 3 laps Jamie Leader proofed to be the fastest at the line.
Thanks to the helpers on the day very much appreciated.

LSD returns! Long Slow Distance–perhaps it should be Slow Long Distance.
Tom and Catriona Pirie are again this year planning a series of long Sunday rides. These are long, slow distance rides to prepare for summer rides such as Tour de Manawatu, Taupo, Waihi Midsummer Madness, etc. The first ride will be approximately 100 km and distances will increase progressively to 200 km in November. We had a good group of riders last year and hope they will all return and bring some friends with them. Anyone who is keen to ride as part of a group is welcome. Meet at Memorial Park at 7.00 am. Provisional routes are listed below.
