Manfeild Crit–Volunteers Required
With Manfeild crit coming up through November we are looking for;
First Aiders
Registered nurse or current 1st aid cert required
We are unable to use the track unless we have qualified 1st aid cover on the night. If you can put your name down for 1 night that would be great.
Please send through a copy of your first aid certificate to secretary@bikemanawatu.co.nz so we can send this through to Manfeild to cover our Health & Safety event plan.
Finish judges
We are looking for people to help with prime and finish line judging at the Manfeild crit. If we can have a few people from each grade put up their hand it will mean that everyone will get to race. If you are racing you’ll be there anyway so this is an easy opportunity to chip in. We wont drop you in the deep end. You’ll be buddied up with someone with finish line experience.
If you can help out, please do get in contact with us.
Thank you

Some great times posted by everyone out on the courses today.

A massive congrats to Colin Anderson on taking line honours in the Joe Allen Classic, charging in behind was a small B grade bunch who started 35min behind the leading limit rider and worked well together to finish only 2min behind on the line. Only 1min later, the front of the A grade group came flying in led home by Madi Hartley-Brown who claimed fastest time on the day and 1st u19 rider. This A grade group started 50min behind Colin and gained 47min back over the course of the race.
Thanks all for coming, see you again next year!
