    I grew up in levin, it isn't as bad as some people make out, its a small town like any other with the same problems and good points. In saying that there is not much there for people my age and Im glad i left - didnt fall into the small town 'drop out of school and get pregnant'. Beach, rivers, hills lots of opportunity to relish the outdoors!

    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Levin is loverly ! I was down there recently (April) for the national secondary school mountain bike champs, me and four boys

    Great town, lovely view over to some big hills, a loverly lake somewhere close - awesome walks around it.

    We will be back down next year for the champs (and every year for around the next eight years once all my boys go through the craze!).

    Can highly recommend Panorama Motor Lodge - really friendly people, great accommodation, spa, pool, putput, playground, garage for secure parking (for your baby), great spot.

    Hey check out these great pics of a mountain bike launching through the crowd - hit my boy on the head (ouch, concussion, lacerations) and broke a woman's neck (or did something to her spine - maybe not broke - horrid though) ...... http://www.nzride.com/news.php?artid=74 In the third photo my son's in the brown shirt with his hands up - my other son (his twin brother) is in the blue shirt - I'm well out of it - you know, save yourself or you remain unsaved hehe .....
