Be aware that the Cycle Tour will be riding today between Masterton/Wainuioru/Admiral Hill and also out towards Castlepoint. I for one will be avoiding those particular areas!

www.cycletournz.com is the website to check it out - I understand it starts at 10.00am

Thanks for that Lynda.

Aint nothin' puts you off your game like a cyclist at the apex of a fully committed, knee down corner.

Doesn't worry me. I'm probably faster than them so I won't get shown up.

also be aware that at the moment with all the hot weather we are having and the amount of trucks going over the rimutakas that the tar is super soft and slippery and starting to come to the surface so the roadong guy's thought it woulbe a great idea to lay down some shingle on some of the worst corners

making it even worse for bikes at pace, cause there is hardly any warning !
