Cyclists riding well
The Neu 7 Zealand junior cycling team has' had considerable success • in Great Britain in preparing for the world junior championships in Stuttgart West Germany. Wayne Eyre, of the Woolston W.M.C. has done well being runner-up to Peter Harding, of Auckland, in the Onchan Cup junior road race and notched up wins in two other open races. Eyre was first home in the Douglas Kermese road race, in which Craig Connell, of Auckland, was second and notched up a win in the Ramsay Kermese road race.
Last week-end, Eyre finished fourth in an open race at Wolverhampton, and Errol Hughes, of Auckland, finished second in the eightlap pursuit series. Jon Andrews, of the Healing Papanui club, has also had success with the New Zealand team. Last weekend at Reading he won an open sprint series competition after he and Eyre had been knocked out in the first round, but then had come back to win impressively in the repechages. The team’s next competition is at a meeting at the Meadowbank Velodrome in Edinburgh this week-end.
