More than a dozen young Bike Manawatu riders have been training at the Human Performance Laboratory at Massey twice a week for the past two months.
Supervised by Michelle Burns, a staff member from the School of Sport and Exercise, the riders have developed a good background in the techniques of resistance training and stretching.
Planning for the combined event has not proceeded to a point where this race can be staged. So it has been decided to POSTPONE what is set to be a great event to a date that will be advised as soon as all details around the event are planned.
BikeNZ enjoyed a triple winning day as their 2016 Rio Olympic campaign began in Europe today.
London Olympic medallist Simon van Velthooven and teenage star Dylan Kennett enjoyed victories on the second day of the UCI tier one international track event in Spain while outstanding prospect Michael Vink prevailed in a prestigious UCI 1.2 category road race in Belgium.
FRIDAY 5th July
at Marist Clubrooms
Pascal St.
Doors open at 7pm.
Quiz starts at 7.30pm
What road would I be travelling on and in which general direction if I saw the following signs on the side of the road. Raupanga followed by Kotemaori.
If you answered SH 2 and travelling south you would be correct and you would now have 2 points.
And if you have been to previous quiz evenings and can remember the answers to some of the questions (How many eyes does a tuatara have when it is 3 months old) that might come in handy as there will be at least 1 question from last year that will be used again this year.
There will be rounds of questions to suit all including the famous Tui questions taken from the tops of Tui Beer bottles. YEAH RIGHT.
And if you know your way around NZ and can identify landmarks you will be well on your way to getting more points for your team when answering questions in the photo round.
There will also be a few trick questions and ridiculous answers will also be rewarded to a certain degree.
So for a fun night out with a fabulous supper and some fabulous prizes get a team together (up to 8 people ) and get your table booked. Either contact Joanne Stewart by email jcstewart@xtra.co.nz or Glenys Taylor secretary@bikemanawatu.co.nz
If you want to be a part of a team please let me know and I will try and put you on a table. Don’t leave it till the last minute. For catering purposes please book your table by 30th June.
Good morning everyone, I hope you are all well and keeping busy. I am preparing this race report on the Narita Express from Shinagawa where I have been staying with Athens Olympic Medalist Ngatsuka Tomohiro since my last race in Toride a few days ago.
My first race this season was in the bustling area of Keiokaku in NE Tokyo. It is a wealthy velodrome that attracts a large number of punters and has a huge fan base due to the superb infrastructure. It’s a pretty amazing place to be locked away for four days and race.
