Please note corrected date for Wal’s*final* Taupo lap of this series – Sunday Apr 14th 8am
Lap 53 now done, that leaves less than distance Cape Reinga- Bluff still to be accounted for.
My *final* Taupo lap of this series will be on Sunday Apr 14th 8am (7.30 register) BP Taupo.
There will CANTEEN personnel @ BP, a $10.00 min donation, you’ll get a bandana in return
This is just a TRAINING ride- NOT a *fun* ride, NO spot prizes- nothing at all, just a few guys/gals out for a cycle ride. There may be a few Taupo riders front up as well.
BUT in view of the recent cycling tragedy last weekend – ( I was apparently about 5 minutes in front of the group) ALL bikes MUST have a working front & rear light attached & turned ON
WE MUST be seen to be doing our bit for Road safety, I DONT want ANY Racing – Crashes- Stupid riding e.g. NO HANDS-.
Just a social ride LSD to finish off my 10400km 65 laps. Could take around 7 hours, SO if its hot bring some cash- only water is at Tihoi or Turangi.

If you are looking for some racing action this weekend and are too old for the TeA tour ….
Cycling Wanganui have a club race around the Kai iwi Circuit, starting at Bason Reserve. A map and full details are on their websitehttp://cyclingwanganui.org.nz/
Having raced with them 2 weeks ago, it was fun and enjoyable racing in a new location. They have lots of masters riders with racing grades to suit all abilities and they are very welcoming to out-of-towners.
If you have never club raced before or want to get some racing in before the Club Road Nationals, I would highly recommend making the trip.
The circuit is 22kms around.
A Grade – 4 laps
B Grade – 2 laps
C Grade – 1 lap
The entry fee for non-members is $12.
If anyone wants a ride (and doing B or C grade), I have room for 1 or 2 people. Text me 027 289 3444 (Megan)
