Old rollers wanted

Hi Guys,
I’m on the hunt for a set of those old rollers that were used to run roller derby’s on. They are basically 2 sets of rollers and a big clock/dial with a hand on it for each rider. You race each other around the clock.
I would be very grateful if you could you please flick this email around to those that you think might know where some a lying (under an old grandstand or buried in someone’s shed).
Kind regards, Hamish

Visitor to the Bay

I am coming across to New Zealand in October/November 2009 and would like to meet up with a club member who will be able to show me some good climbing rides. I am a very fit 63 year old and will be staying with my son in Greenmeadows, Napier. If anyone is able to help - please email me on bodie.1@tiscali.co.uk.
Kind regards, Terry Donnelly.
