Weekly wrap

Great start to the reboot of the cycling calendar last Sunday May 4th with a flat graded Road race at Glen Oroua. 4 grades with Club and schools riders joining up to make for some great racing. This year we are implementing a mentor system to support our junior riders as the learn their trade in cycling, and this will show benefits with skill and safety as they continue in the sport.

This Sunday we have the Mother’s Day ITT starting at a later time of 11.00 at Kairanga. Time to treat our mums and still have a competitive outing before Lunch. Number pick up and bathrooms are at the school and a rolling briefing will be at the start line opposite the Horizons yard. Self seeding with faster riders going last.

There a 24 km option available and they will start from 10.45.

Weather is looking great for Sunday. Enter on webscorer with links on our Facebook page

A rare fundraiser please – Last day to order today!

As many of you are aware, Strat Ellingham had a nasty accident on his bike ride and has been in Burwood hospital for a while now. He is making good progress and is even more dedicated to this than he was training on his bike for world champs.

In order to raise some funds to support him a bit, Pedal Cartel have kindly launched the Strat Man socks.

Who NEEDS new Socks, we ALL wear them & they ALL wear OUT, please consider purchasing some & assist in just some of the many expenses Strat has in front of him while he recovers at Burwood Hospital.
Strat is a very quiet gent, with a heart of Gold. He like many others opted out of his Comfort Zone & joined in with the Team Hughes Joinery cyclists in 2019 & rode the 100th Taupo Cycle Challenge TWO lap ENDURO with around 70 others.
Thanks Heaps for any assistance.
