In working out the points that have been achieved over the handicap races that have been held so far some interesting numbers have arisen.

The first race in the series was the Pahiatua Sealed Handicap. In this event which was an interclub event there were a total 36 entries but only half of these were Bike Manawatu members. Allriders started at the same time and although Robert Stannard was first over the line the winner of the Cup after adjusting for the sealed handicap was Frazer Allen.

The weather unfortunately plays a big factor on who gets out and rides in any event. Obviously the hardy soles that knew that they needed to accumulate points from week 1 to be in with a good shot to win prizemoney at the end of the season came out to Kairanga  for the first chance to grab points.

Thanks to Horizons Regional Council for again allowing us to use their yard and to MDC for erecting the signs on the course.
