Still Racing?
Good.
Get the crew together and head to Timaru for a weekend of track racing, a 10km time trial and road racing at Levels Raceway.
Enter the Masters GamesA bloody good excuse to go racing.
The South Island Masters Games isn't about proving you've still got it. If you're still pinning on a number, you already know you have.
This is a relaxed weekend built around something cyclists never really grow out of: racing bikes with their mates.
Race on the track on Saturday, then line up for a 10km individual time trial and road race at Levels Raceway on Sunday.
Come for one event, come for the lot, or get a few mates together and make a weekend of it.
Ever thought about giving track a crack?
You might have spent years racing on the road and never actually lined up on a track.
Saturday's programme at the Caledonian Grounds gives you another reason to bring the bike south and make a proper weekend of it.
Track regular? Brilliant. Track-curious? Even better.
Two days. Five chances to beat your mates.
Track Cycling
The weekend starts at Timaru's Caledonian Grounds with a simple three-event track programme.
- 500m Time Trial
- Individual Pursuit
- 3000m Scratch Race
Three very different events and a rather good way to start a weekend of bike racing.
Road Cycling
Sunday moves to Levels Raceway for a morning individual time trial followed by road racing in the afternoon.
- 10km Individual Time Trial
- Road race on the Levels Raceway circuit
- Distances adjusted by age category
Closed circuit. No traffic. Just you, your legs and whichever mate you've spent the drive down telling you're going to beat.
Race people your own age.
Competition is across five-year Masters age categories starting at 35–39 and continuing through the older age groups.
Depending on entry numbers, some racing groups may be combined on the road or track, while results and medals can still be recognised across the appropriate age categories.
Get the crew together.
A weekend in Timaru, a few bike races and the opportunity to discover exactly which of your mates has been lying about their form.
