It doesn't hurt that acting Cycling Southland general manager Walter Lettink is a keen cyclist.

Over the last five days a group of 15 Southland cyclists have travelled up north and have competed in the Te Awamutu tour, along with a six-strong parent support crew. So far the trip has been a great experience for everyone after a good track national’s session and now bringing great success on the road too.

Hello everyone and welcome to the other side of Easter and the end of another month – just like an Elite sprinter the days are still flying by!
