Ramblers Photos

The Ramblers photo albums have moved and are now been hosted by Google's Picasa Web Site.

This gives us 1GB (for non techno-phobes - heaps) of free space and will allow for better management and ease of upload for Ramblers Members.

For Ramblers Members who have photos to contribute contact me via info@ramblers.co.nz and I can arrange for a temporary Login to the Picasa web site. You will need to download the client (A great little photo editor) Here to allow for ease of upload and album management.

- the best way to view each album is to click on the album and then the slide show tab at the top left of page View Album Here or navigate from Photo's link on Ramblers Web site Here

Sunday 1st November

The Tour de Manawatu 2009 is fast approaching. A new 80 km option has been added this year to the normal 20,45 and 116 km options. Once again the Tour is a perfect lead up for Taupo three weeks afterwards.

We would love to see a really big turnout this year.

Lake Taupo Cycle Challenge

It has been suggested that it might be helpful for club members doing the Taupo Challenge to know beforehand what group others have entered for. This is so club members may like to hook up with and ride with people they know and who are aiming for a similar time, or get some gauge of a group they might enter for based on what others are aiming for.

If you want to be added to a members list please email Gavin Scoble at gs08@xtra.co.nz with your name and group and I'll collate a list which will be periodically updated on the Blog.

Auckland to Wellington Cycle Challenge Feb 2010

Hi All,

The 2nd Auckland to Wellington Cycle Challenge will be held in February 2010.
The Cycle Challenge is "OPEN" to anyone and has a real attraction to the masters age group type of competitor.

ELITE RACE: I am keen to include an Elite Race section. However this will only happen if enough ELITE RIDERS enter.
I would appreciate it if any ELITE RIDERS could contact me to indicate if they are interested in riding.
That way i can make all the necessary arrangement to include the "ELITE RACE"

All information is on the web site. www.dynamoevents.co.nz
Any questions just contact me at stephen@dynamoevents.co.nz
Thanks for your support.

Cheers
Stephen Cox
Race Director
