Nelson riders win ‘colourful’ race

Richmond Volunteer Fire Brigade members, from left, Nigel Lammas, Amy Little, Blair Hall and Bryan Parks raced at Kaiteriteri on Saturday. Photo: Simon Bloomberg month - I hurt it when I crashed on Top Dog and it hasn’t come right.” Nelson’s Jake Stow and Ingrid Richter took out the solo riding honours with Jake completing a leg-burning 15 laps and Ingrid riding 13 which, incredibly, was more than many of the teams. Craig Tolson and Cameron Jones both recorded 14 laps to finish second and third respectively in the men’s solo race while Bridget McMillan completed 11 laps and super-veteran Liz Eskrick rode eight in

the women’s. The Wild Waka Women rode 13 laps to win the women’s team’s race with the Brook Badasses, Brent Edwards and Ash and Naomi Whitehead riding 15 laps to win the mixed section. The race for the best fancy dress prize was just as competitive with Emma Bawtree’s Wheel Woman Witches team, who rode the course wearing witch’s hats and black cloaks on bikes fitted with broom sticks, taking the honours. A group of marine biologists from Cawthron

and NIWA, Anna Berthelsen, Megan Carter, Robyn Dunmore and CJ McClay, showed their true colours by wearing fishylooking bike helmets while the Bridal Gear’s Jenny Ferrier, Fay McKenzie and Deb Morris rode in wedding dresses. Organiser Guy Trainor says 240 riders competed in the race, completing a total of 1055 laps. All proceeds from the race will be used to develop the Kaiteriteri Mountainbike Park.

The father and son pairing of Mark and Henry Jaine were the fastest riders in Saturday’s Port Nelson Kaiteriteri Six-Hour Mountainbike Relay Race but it was the solo riders who endured the most pain and the teams in fancy dress who had the most fun. Mark and Henry completed 16 laps of the 7.5km circuit around the Kaiteriteri Mountainbike Park with Henry, 18, also recording the fastest lap of the day at 19min 8sec. Although Henry was riding two laps to his father’s one, Mark still contributed, consistently recording fast 22 minute laps to help them complete a hattrick of wins in team’s races at Kaiteriteri. “I’m getting slower and Henry’s getting faster, but we still managed to win,” Mark says. “But it will be my last race for a while because I’m getting a shoulder reconstruction next
