The club’s AGM is scheduled for the evening of Wed 25th March. I’d like to encourage you all to attend, to show your support of the organisation, but also as an opportunity to help determine the make up of the Board.
If indeed you are keen on being part of the governance of Bike Manawatu and would like to contribute by working on the Board or with the Board, then please give me a call to chat. More to come about the AGM next week…
At the same occasion straight after the AGM, as usual we will have the track prize-giving ceremony.
Please come along to support the young (and older) riders who have achieved on the track, participate in the AGM, and enjoy some food in a social setting.
Steve.

The club road race for Saturday (21 Feb) is scheduled for Ashhurst to Highland home and return. However, the School’s Cycling Camp is also on this weekend engaging most local young riders and a number of older riders.
Rather than suffer from a depleted field in a graded race (which can get rather lonely if you get dropped), we will postpone this race for the time being.
