Cycling: Age Group Track National Championships

TBHS —

Congratulations to Noah Hollamby and Ferg Sail who had a very successful trip to the Indoor Velodrome in Invercargill for the Age Group Track Nationals.

This is New Zealand's premier national track cycling event for Age Group riders from U15's through to Masters riders. Riders are selected to represent their Cycling Centres ensuring the top riders attend to race for national titles.

Track cycling events involve a mix of speed, skill and tactics. The sport is highly competitive and hugely entertaining, and because events are raced in a velodrome, track is arguably the best type of cycling for spectators.

Noah gained a 3rd/Bronze in 750 m Derby, and very good results against some strong North Island boys in his other races.

Ferg came home with a Silver medal won in the boys' Under-17 750-metre team sprint, and set personal bests in his 500m time trial and 2000m individual pursuit.
