Welcome to the website of the Morrinsville
Wheelers Cycling Club. We are a friendly club located in the
heart of the Waikato, New Zealand. Our cyclists range from national champions to
the occasional recreational rider. We have a strong history in both road and
track and our riders actively participate in both these disciplines.
Morrinsville Wheelers is affiliated to Cycling NZ.
We are committed to providing the correct level of
racing to enhance your riding ability and to give all riders an equal chance of
winning. We have coaches available to help you set up your bike correctly and
to provide training advice to help you with your short and/or long term goals.
The club hosts three major events during the year.
In February is the Bev May Women's Tour, which is regularly attended by the top
women riders in the country. The tour offers participation in A, B and
Novice grades. The Kaimai Cycles Invitation is held in August and is a 64 km
handicap race with shorter courses for age-group grades. The first weekend of
October traditionally is the Morrinsville Open. This consists of a handicap race on Saturday and graded mass
start races on Sunday.
Regular club races are held throughout the year,
usually on alternate Saturdays. During daylight saving, Tuesday evenings are
host to the popular Kaimai Cycles Twilight Series. Check Events for more
information on club races.
The quiet country roads of the Morrinsville area
offer some of the best racing and training around. We have a bit of everything:
long flats, challenging hills and undulating circuits. Cycling is growing
enormously nationwide, so come and experience this exciting sport with the
Morrinsville Wheelers! |
