    So that sort of proves people rely too much on Google... which is apparently RUBBISH!
    The ruddy great Bill Board on SH1 outside Ohakea is a pretty great advertising board..... Along with others.
    Sign up for the News Letter and you will be kept informed. Then you can e-mail that to your friends and family.

    Simple really.....

    In the old days I'm pretty sure we used to talk to each other or ring them on the phone.....
    So what you are saying is, if you are uninformed Joe Public, you're supposed to either:

    1. Google something you don't know exists
    2. Sign up for something you don't know exists
    3. Call each other and talk about something we haven't heard about

    You're absolutely right, it is simple.......

    You sort of missed the point.

    Over the past couple of weeks I have been talking to people from all walks of life who aren't on Face Book, or Kiwibiker, who will be heading along to Wanganui on Boxing day.
    Why?
    Well it is the season of Christmas functions and i find it is much easier to actually talk to people and tell them about things than relying on social media....

    It has always been like that. Unless one rides a bike or know someone that rides a bike, joe public hearing by chance about a road racing event has always been more or less nil. (unless you happen to drive past the bill board outside Ohakea someone mentioned earlier in the thread).
