The following information is intended as background to the proposed event and club participation in it.
Cuddon Cycling Marlborough (CCM), Marlborough have temdered a proposal to host this event with a proposed date of Saturday 15 October (a road race is proposed for Sunday 16 October as an added attraction).
Masters riders may also choose to remain in the region as the South Island Masters Games are to be held in Nelson on Labour Weekend (21, 22, 23 October).
CCM has been instrumental in bringing back the team time trial event nationally via its remits through the centre.
Last year CCM's bid to run the inaugural event last year was unsuccessful and the event went to Hamilton.
Hamilton has pulled out and CCM would like the opportunity to make this a successful National event as per their initial proposal.
The event would highlight and promote team time trials in New Zealand and its importance in track racing today.
With the restructuring of many of the road and track National championships over recent times, the team time trials is potentially the only national event an entire club can attend and compete in together.
CCM are requesting club support at the National AGM forum to retain this event.
