Lower North Island Run.

Post by optional »

The next event for the Challenge Series will be a Manawatu run.

We are going to pay a visit to the Manawatu Coach Museum.
Date is: Sunday 22nd April.
Meeting Place : Palmerston North Square.
Time : 10:30 am.

This means that Sue and I will be leaving Otaki around 9:15 a.m. Anyone wanting to join us from south can meet opposite the BP in Otaki.

There will be a short run through some nice roads and a bite at a local cafe afterwards ( location undecided ). Should not be a late finish so Wairarapa members and others who are afraid of the dark can still get home before the bogey men come out.

Not on call should make this one.

I was hoping to come along as there hasn't been a Manawatu run since we moved here. As it happens, my SW is having problems & won't be looked at until next week :cry:

Hey, the more the merrier.
If the SW is non operational bring something else. If that's not possible let us know we might be able to find a spare seat.
