November is big on cycling down here
Oceania time trials as well, but they were miles away in Invercargill where tom Parrish should consider retiring - there is a tractor dealership across the road from the KFC ! WOW I know.
The track racing was on all week too, but I didn't have my camera on me. And who could care less about the weather as the track is indoors with food and beer for sale - I am considering retiring there !
I got to hang with Alex, Clinton and Mike who rode the tour, the time trial and road race. Clinton got a 1st, 2nd and 2nd respectively. I'd say sexual favours will come his way from his girl Rebecca for stella performances like that.
Alex got 2nd in a stage in the tour -rolled on the line by Glen Rewi, who last won a stage some 10 years ago I believe....oh that smarts. And he got 3rd in the road race helping his Auckland team mate to victory on the day.
Mike got to assist Clinton in driving from Invercargill to Blenheim all in one day. Stuff that.
And my news is: Emily has a new bike for transportation to the park and other nearby spots.
Presenting the Gary Fisher Tasajara: bought the frame for 2 bucks on an undisclosed internet site.
