At 5am on Sunday 25 March, two of the give way rules are changing to make New Zealand’s roads safer.
It’s important for cyclists to be aware of the changes so visit www.giveway.govt.nz for more information.

When you’re turning right from the bottom of a T-intersection
with no signs or signals, you will need to give way to all vehicles
at the top of the T.
So at all T-intersections and driveways, including public driveways
such as at a supermarket or hospital, think ‘Top of the T goes
before me’.

If you’re turning right, give way
This rule will apply at intersections where two vehicles are facing
no signs or signals, or the same signs or signals. You will need to
give way to left turning vehicles coming from the opposite direction
if you are turning right.

You must place your order as only a limited range will be held in stock. Pricing was sent out to members in the last newsletter. Please note that if you are intending to ride at National events you will be required to wear club kit. The old PN Marist kit is no longer accepted.

A suggestion has been made that all those that will be competing at the Club Nationals in Hastings this year may want to stay in the same accomodation. With this in mind I am making enquiries in to what accomodation is available for Bike Manawatu.

 

Can you please let me know as soon as possible if you will be requiring accomodation. The time table for the events is out. The time trials will be held on Thursday at Waipawa and the road races will be held east of Hastings so the obvious place to stay will be in Hastings.
