Normal service has resumed
- Brooklyn Northern United AFC
- Recent Public Service (PS) results had failed to impress. A one all draw with league strugglers the Uni Bombers the week before had left some smouldering embers of discontent. Within 10 minutes of kick off, those embers were alight.

Working Men
- T3 Track Blog
- While all the noise of the kango was going there was some good old benching and gravelling going on in between so that we can ride to each obstacle, makes sense really. Rob and Will showing how it's done.

"Crash Test Dummy"
- T3 Track Blog
- We decided to give people a choice at the first rock out-crop of going high or low, as the high line has quite a drop and takes full commitment to clean. As Hugh demonstrates in these photos, a tumble from the low line is not life threatening but still a good challenge.

Shoot Out At Shed 6
- Zephyr Rovers FC
- Zephyr Rovers were controversially eliminated from the Division 3 play-offs after a penalty shoot out with Rothenbury Rangers. "We finished 5 - 5 in all sorts of confusion after the referee disallowed two perfectly good goals to Rovers" said Zephyr Manager Steve Hall "several of the Rothenbury players actually were surprised to find out they hadn't lost".

The Twister
- T3 Track Blog
- We finished the boardwalk part of the twister a couple of weeks ago on a beautiful autumn afternoon, which turned into evening by the time we were done. We knew this corner was going to be tight, but after 1 hour of kango action and a couple of test rides we came to the conclusion that this corner is very very tight, so after another hour on the kango we were just able to sneak around.

WBL: Results Round Four
- The Wellingtonista
- So tonight I messed up with giving people their lane assignments, which probably means that it's possible that ClickSuite might have thought that they'd won their round, and Clemenger might have thought that they'd lost theirs (oh who are we kidding, Clemenger would never think that, and that's why we love them), but as it turns out, it was Bowltron who were the winners on the night.

Rogaine Runs from Lambton Quay
- Wellington Orienteering Association
- A really bizarre feeling starting last night's rogaine in downtown Wellington beside the pubbers, and battling the traffic lights on the outward legs. But of course Tinakori Hill and Ngaio Gorge are only minutes away. The event run out of the Norsewear shop on Lambton Quay by adventure racing "Team Norsewear" was won by Bill Edwards in spite of a fading headlamp.
