Support for valued Valued Club Sponsors
Well known Garry Buys has been at the forefront of people buying and repairing bikes for many years. However his encouragement to all cyclists to learn riding etiquette, organise social rides and sponsor events has been of real value to the Manawatu cycling community for which we are appreciative and thank Garry and his Bike Barn Team. Your continued support for our valued sponsors is appreciated.
Hotel Coachman and Leonie and Brendon Hapeta have forever been huge on community support throughout the Manawatu Region. Bike Manawatu and Schools cycling have been the beneficiary their valued support in so many different ways from event sponsorship through to the employment of local NZ rising star cyclists at the Hotel. It is no wonder Hotel Coachman won the Hospitality Award for the Manawatu Standard Conference and Event venue of the year in 2016.The photo represents only some of their team. Thank you, Leonie and Brendon.
