Manfeild 6 Hour.

With the 2020 event being cancelled due to covid, It was incredibly exciting to welcome back the 6 hour back into its’ traditional time slot.
The event holds high status in our calendar because it reaches out to all ages and agendas, more than most events.
From the first timers to the veterans. No matter what your age, ability or experience the 6 hour caters for it.
Congrats to David and Adam Martin for taking out the teams section again for the 3^rd year in a row.
All results can be found “here”.

Not in the results is the effort put in by Darren Murdie, who started his ride for the weekend at 3.00pm Saturday.
Setting a target of 500kms in a day he casually turned up to the start of the six hour and continued on with his day, finally eclipsing 507km by early afternoon.
This was part of a Westpac Helicopter fundraiser challenge…but most others spread the 500 kms over a week. Kudos to Darren..Massive effort

With Manawatu Schools racing started for the term, BM riders have the opportunity to enter selected events.
There are ITT’s, TTT’s and Road races in the calendar with a list of events being finalised in the next 7 days.
With winter coming, please be lit up and ride safe
