The first of the graded Road Races is this weekend at Te Horo. Turn left into Te Horo Beach Road (right if you are coming from the north) and park by the boat sales yard. The start is just down the road but the registration will be in the vicinity of the boat yard.For graded road races you race in your own grade so for each grade there is a separate race. Lots of fun on a reasonably flat circuit, I just hope the wind dies down a bit between now and then. If you don’t wish to ride or you know of someone who can marshall on a corner we are a couple of marshalls short at present. Please flick an email to Dave Grimmond or register to volunteer on line so we can run a safe event. Enter on line now.Coffee after the race will be at the Red Café in Te Horo, bring your eftpos card or some cash along. My winter conditioning can vouch for the scones they make at the Red Café!!!Have you paid your subs yet; great to see some more paid up on the weekend, still more to come I am sure.Can you help with organising the two day tour; we need a couple of volunteers to help out. Please let me know by return email because we need to get this underway very soon if the event is to be a success.Safe riding to you all.RegardsDouglas Mabey

Preliminary results hereFrom the organisers of the Wairarapa fun ride, a big thank you to all the competitors who braved the testing conditions (especially the cross winds coming into Martinbourgh) you are what makes the event.Our sponsors Avanti and Dole, we recommend you eat Dole Bananas for energy on your rides and shop at Avanti plus for your biking needs.Biggest thanks to the Featherston Lions community as without your support and organisation we couldn't hold such a successful event. Next year we should be due for sun so mark your calendars for the first spring classic on the 4th October 2009. Thanksthe organisers Wairarapa fun ride
Just a quick note to let you all know that I've put the final points table for
the Winter Series together as well as a bit of a wrap up of how it all panned
out.
Due to the recent storm the roads in Whitemans Valley have been seriously affected by slips, trees blown over and power lines taken out. There are a number of different areas between Wallaceville Hill and Blue Mtns Hill that contractors are currently working on. However it is still teaming with rain at 11.30am Thursday and flooding could also be an issue. It would pay to find an alternative training ride if you use these roads.
Over the winter months a predominantly new committee and helpers has been working hard to get everything ready for the new season. The good news is the weather has been painfully poor so most have had extra spare time to put in.
Hi there everyone,Just a reminder to let current and past club members know that registrations are due to close this Friday 8 August (although I will keep registrations open for a further 2 weeks).
