We are really excited to announce that Bergamont Bikes are going to sponsor trail building tools for the Christchurch Singletrack Club.  Bergamont Bikes are from Germany and have only recently ventured to our shores.  Visit http://www.bergamont.co.nz/ to see the range of bikes they offer.

Awesome effort from Bradley Hudson who went under 12 minutes and finished a precious few seconds ahead of Anton Cooper.

Here is a great local event that we encourage you to participate in.  Graham Read says… “Our first MTBO event of 2010 is coming up fast!  PAPO is pleased to announce the 4 and 6 hour Port Hills MTB rogaine. This will be held on Sunday 14^th February.  Registration, start and finish will be in the St Martins Scout den (same as last year) opposite the end of Rapaki Road.  Registration will be from 8am with briefing at 8.45am and mass start for the 6 hour event at 9am. A second briefing for the 4 hour event will be held at 10.45 am with a start time of 11am. Prize giving will be at around 3.20pm. Those starting at 9am can choose to return within either 4 or 6 hours. 4 hour riders can choose either start time. Entry fees will be $25 for adults (per map), $15 for  juniors. Two or more riders may share a map.  You will need to bring spare clothes and wind-proof waterproof jacket, food and drink for 6 hours (water is available at several places on the courses), survival blanket, basic bike tools and spare tubes, cell-phone, sunblock and we advise a small first aid kit.  Every effort will be made to assist in the case of mechanicals or injuries but you need to plan to be self-sufficient for 6 hours.  A map board or some means of carrying your map is very useful. We will not be using Sportident so you will be carrying two clip cards. A pen will be needed to record a code for a few control locations. PLEASE advise Graeme Read (gr.read@gmail.com) if you are planning to take part so we can prepare the correct number of maps. Rain could cause track closure. We need registrations of interest in advance to notify people of cancellation /postponement. Graeme is also available for any queries, ph 3522582. Hope to see you all there.”

Craig and Rebekah spent the day today at Living Springs with the first of what will hopefullybe numerous community work sessions.  We had a great bunch of guys and it went really well. The current plan is to start using them again as often as weekly from late January.

Rebekah met with the Corrections Dept today to discuss providing work for people needing to complete Community Service hours (track building).   It looks promising so we’ll keep you posted.
