If you are wanting a hitout pre Taupo Cycle Challenge that simulates the course and tests your 'readiness and metal' to take on this challenge then the Tour of Wairarapa Funride is the event for you.

The course passes through scenic rural areas surrounding Masterton.

The 50km ride is an out and back course through Whangehu Valley, turning around at Dreyers Rock Road.

The 115km course follows the same road, then passes through Alfredton, Eketahuna with a small portion on the main highway, then left at Kaiparora, through Hastwell and back to the Dreyers Rock Road corner, then back to town.

There is also a 10km fun ride for ages 5-16years. Fee per rider is $10. Those under 10 are to be accompanied by an adult, but the adult will not be charged.

Each entry into the 115km and 50km races includes a meal (two meals for tandem riders). The 10km fun ride does not include a meal ticket. Extra meal tickets can be purchased for $15 each.

A good turn out of members and supporters were welcomed by the host of the evening Ken Young.

Ken started the evening by covering a few housekeeping matters, like emergency exits and what was the order of proceedings for the evening.

First up was the presentation of the “CHAMPIONS JERSEYS” to the girls. These were presented by Ian McKelvie.
