                                   Bev May
                                                                                               Name                Club                        Name                Club
Bev first became interested in cycling in 1958 when her brother took up the sport.
                                                                                          1    Pip Sutton          Hamilton CCC          16    Renee Wootton       North Harbour
There had been women cyclist’s before Bev but they had never been allowed to ride
with the men. This all changed when Bev got her chance to show the guys what she          2    Abigail Morton *    Counties Manukau      17    Laura Newman-Watt   North Harbour
was made of. During a novelty day held by the Waipa Wheelers, Bev not only took           3    Dayna Haythorne     North Harbour         18    Anna Wilkinson      Counties Manukau
part in the race against the men her age but then went and beat them. This inspired
                                                                                          4    Olivia Ray          Auckland CC           19    Greer Haddock *     Auckland Central
Bev to want to race against the men every week. Only one problem, women weren’t
allowed to race with the men. The blokes weren’t having a bar of it. Bev’s                5    Alicia Evans        Counties Manukau      20    KerryAnne Paige     Napier
persistence paid off and in 1960 she became the first women in NZ to take out a           6    Courteney Lowe      Tauranga CC           21    Leslie Vanner       Te Awamutu SC
racing license. The men put out a petition to try and ban Bev from racing with them       7    Laura Jorgensen     Tauranga CC           22
but thankfully for us, it failed.
                                                                                          8    Deborah Paine       Tauranga CC           23
Bev competed for 28 years, becoming the fastest women in the 160km Mt Egmont              9    Kirsty McCallum     Ramblers CC           24
(now Taranaki) race in 1966 in a time of 4 hours 54 minutes and winning the               10   Karen Fulton        Tasman Wheeers        25
Morrinsville Open. Unfortunately, it was an accident that ended Bev’s competitive
                                                                                          11   Ione Johnson        PNP                   26
days in 1988. It would probably be easier to list the body parts Bev didn’t fracture.
This hasn’t diminished Bev’s love of cycling or her contribution. Prior to that Bev had   12   Kate Wightman       North Harbour C       27
already been active in the administration side of the sport. She’s been the club          13   Amanda Jamieson     Cycling CHB           28
secretary at Morrinsville Wheelers longer, I imagine, than most people can recall.        14   Rebecca Kingsford   Te Awamutu SCC        29
And in 1990 she started the Bev May’s Women’s Tour.

    fast and gain time on the flat after a climb is a plus. With Langma, there are performance
          benefits for all different kinds of terrain” Learn more at Liv-Cycling.com/Langma

A/B/U17 Grades meet at the Morrinsville Intermediate School Bus Stop. They will ride
neutralised to Eynon Road where racing will be started.
There is very limited parking at the finish. Do not drive or cycle back down hill
after finishing the race until race management advises accordingly.
Riders will ride along the Morrinsville-Walton Road out to Kiwitahi, then turn left into
Hutchinson Road and back to Kiwitahi (A Grade repeat this loop), with a hill finish on
top of Tahuroa Road. The course is undulating with several short hills and some fast
downhill stretches.
Note: There are two (2) railway crossing on the course. You must obey the signal
displayed. If you are not stopping when required, the rider will be disqualified. Any
existing gaps will stay as they are and monitored by the commissaires.

             Roads are open to the public — Keep LEFT at all times.
