LOOK OUT FOR CYCLISTS – BE PATIENT ON THE ROAD
A reminder for all road users to take extra care and be patient on Wairarapa roads between Wednesday Jan 10th and Saturday 13th January.
This it because the UCI 2.2 Mitre 10 MEGA New Zealand Cycle Classic international cycle race is on. It involves around 100 elite international cyclists + a large convoy of race officials, race cars and Ambulance. The convoy will be escorted by the NZ Police and traffic management crews.
You may be asked to slow down, pull over to the side of the road or to stop your vehicle completely to let the convoy safely through.
A safe race does have some rules. Always obey the instructions of police and motorcycle escort marshals, volunteer marshals and race staff. Cyclists will be racing through Masterton, Alfredton, Gladstone and Martinborough during these three days.
Please show your support for these athletes from Australia, Great Britain, The Netherlands, Japan, France, USA, and of course New Zealand.
For the first time ever, this five-day tour will see the peloton race around the picturesque Carrington area (back of Carterton) on Saturday, 13th January and then through our Golden Mile, or Lambton Quay area on Sunday afternoon in the thrilling final circuit race.

Some ideas include:

A teaspoon commemorating the Coronation of King Charles III
A copy of Prince Harry’s book “Spare”
A banner that says “Up the Wahs”
What would you put in there to sum up life in NZ this year?
Hi. I have some nice little self seeded Silver Beet plants if anyone would like them. I will dig them barerooted so they can be planted straight away. They are just the right size for transplanting.
Free.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
Thanks for looking.
If anyone saw somebody wheeling a lawn mower near Queen Elizabeth Park in Masterton between 2.30 pm Friday 29th and 8am this morning please contact the Masterton police or phone Russell Ward 027-5011-112. They may also have been carrying a petrol can.
Would anyone have one of those old metal trikes that children used to have. It is to be used for a garden ornament so doesnt need to be in working order.
Happy to pay for it.
Many thanks,

“Moving to a Ryman apartment meant that we could take off, lock up, and leave everything. So that’s what we did, and it has been wonderful, just amazing.” Eric and Glynn, William Sanders Village residents.
