Track Crew News - September 2010

At last we have the Rotary Ride back. Its been a big job to rebuild it because of the big mess. Also a lot of damage happened to the old track so I hope everybody enjoys the new views.

We are going to under take a native tree planting program over the next few years along the track.
Shawn at Quality Print has already put his hand up and will help with some trees. We will start next year that way we can keep the weeds under control. If any body else wants to help with trees etc please sing out.


We have been getting hammered with slips all over the place so if come across one please This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. so we can add it to the list to get cleaned up.


The Day Nighter went well with everybody enjoying the tracks. Murray Fleming chips in and helps pays for the maintenance on the Rotary Ride so the event is great for us all round.

Thanks once again to the Marshals who turned up picking up broken riders / bikes/ lights and keeping the track in good nick through-out the day.

For those entering the Huka Race, the tracks are all sorted for the event now with the new Bridge going into Kegresse and also opening up Fast Eddie again.
Been told that entries are coming in remember the event is capped, We have a limit on the number of riders going through the Huka Falls area so don’t miss out, we expect it to fill up because of the relay this year
