This week has been very sad for all of our cycling community, we have lost our friend and companion, Averil Sheehan. She has amazed us with her endless list of achievements done with such determination and ability! She was a caring, kind person who has won the total admiration and respect of her Velogirl and Bike Manawatu family.
It is with disbelief and sadness that we say farewell instead of 'have a safe ride' or 'good luck for your next marathon'

"Rest in peace Dear Averil"

We extend all our love and deepest sympathy to her family at this time and wish to offer any help and support if needed.

 

Spring is just around the corner and that means it’s going to be daylight saving soon.
Our annual Spring/Summer Wednesday Night Time Trial series will get underway as soon as daylight saving starts.
But, we need someone to put their hand up to organise this pre-Christmas series.
It’s not hard, you just need to be there on a regular basis to open the Horizons Compound, take entries, and get some helpers to marshall, time, and hold the bikes. If you’ve got someone regularly riding, or ridden this series plenty of times without helping, then please consider this request.
Get in touch with myself or Katherine if you are interested in taking on the job.
