                                                       Welcome to the first print edition of the Pinkie since March

MOUNTAIN BIKE
  WASH DOWN AND
  REPAIR STATION
  Hanmer Springs MTB Club now have a wash-
  down and repair station for mountain bikers at
  the old DOC centre on Jollies Pass Rd. (The
  hub and car park for walking and biking trails).
  Thanks to our volunteers from the committee
  and members many of whom have donated
  time and materials towards this project.
  We would also like to specifically thank John
  Dawber and Annie Truman from the Hanmer Springs
  Foursquare supermarket. They are a proud contributor
  to the Foodstuffs Community Trust and endorsed our
  application for funding from The Trust for the repair
  station which is the most significant cost and integral
  part of the project.

  the local mountain bike club, visit our web site
