Track Cycling Report
“E hara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa taki mano”
Our strength is not that of an individual but that of a collective
Bike Manawatu Track is pleased to announce that the growth & interest in the sport has resulted in incredible numbers of new members joining this season. This amazing increase can be attributed to the success of the Wonder Women On Wheels Workshop, & our annual “Have A Go” day.
One of the most pleasing aspects with new members, are the amount of families which have decided to join. This effectively has boosted numbers considerably in all age categories.
We have seen a 55% increase in members this season, including a 67% growth in female riders. What is also great news is the “whopping” 110% growth in Masters riders this year. Overall, the Bike Manawatu Track Committee couldn’t be more pleased with what has transpired regarding the growth in the sport recently.
The newly painted & fitted out clubrooms have been well received by all. Feedback from our members have been nothing but complimentary saying that the new look clubrooms offer a welcoming & relaxing environment for everyone. One of the final touches will be displaying an incredible collection of historical photos of those who have accomplished feats of greatness on the road & track from the region.
The culture which Bike Manawatu Track is creating, is a culture of inclusion, fun, growth & development, family, kindness & respect. Qualities in which a large percentage of our new members have commented on already. We have been working closely with the Bike Manawatu Board, Manawatu District Council, Sports Manawatu, & other organisations to ensure the continuous support & promise to all our riders, members, families, supporters, & volunteers.
Lastly, we would like to acknowledge the tireless work & unbelievably selfless contribution, the Bike Manawatu Track Committee members have invested into what has become such a rewarding outcome.
We are all looking forward to an exciting 2019/2020 track cycling season

First actions course.
On Tuesday 22nd October we hosted our First Actions course run in conjunction with John from Meditrain in Feilding.
Our attendees learnt some amazing fundamental skills from basic CPR, wound management and scene safety.
The training was delivered in a interactive way that engaged our riders and built up their confidence.
They learnt the following skills and had fun in the process:
- Practicing placing their friends into the recovery position.
- Understanding to make sure their mate is safe if they have to leave the scene to go and get help.
- The fundamentals of CPR – where and how hard they need to press for CPR, 30 compressions and 2 breaths no matter who for
- The need to apply pressure to wounds and elevate them.
- They know they can call emergency services off their friends phone even if its locked.
- They are aware of basic concussion signs.
- They learnt how to administer an Epi pen the correct way.
- They all feel more confident in calling 111
As a parent I am left feeling more confident that the riders that participated in this course have practiced all of the basic skills that hopefully they will never be required to do.
I was impressed with the feedback from the juniors as they enjoyed their supper.
