Multi-world age group champions Jessie Smith and Cailen Calkin, both from the Waikato, are part of the five-strong New Zealand cycling team to compete at the Youth Olympic Games in Argentina.
The athletes will compete in the 13-day Games at Buenos Aires from 6-18 October in a team comprising BMX, mountain bike and road riders.
Smith was the 16 years BMX world champion in 2017 and ninth in her first year as a junior elite in 2018.
Calkin, a three-time Challenge world champion, was a quarterfinalist in the junior elite (under-19) category this year.
At the Youth Olympic Games the pair will compete in the BMX racing against other riders of the same sex, with their results to be combined as medals are awarded to the team with the most points.
The pair are joined by three mountain-bike riders (who also have road experience), Samara (Sammie) Maxwell (Taupo), Phoebe Young (Wanaka) and Max Taylor (Palmerston North).
Maxwell is the national under-19 mountain bike champion while Young is the Oceania under-19 winner and also New Zealand under-19 road time trial champion.
Taylor, the 2017 under-17 mountain bike champion, has also enjoyed success as a road rider.
The mountain bike/road riders will race in a criterium, time trial and road race (road cycling) with an eliminator and short track races for mountain bike.
Maxwell and Young will compete as a team in the female division. In the male division Taylor will compete alongside Calkin.
“The Youth Olympic Games is an important international stage for our young riders to experience the Olympic values and to both experience and understand the challenges of a vast multisport global competition,” said Cycling New Zealand HP Athlete Development Lead, Graeme Hunn.
“The International Olympic Committee continue to use this competition to incorporate fresh ideas and new sports, several of which have flowed through to international and Olympic events.”
This time we believe the competitions are really beneficial to our developing riders and we have selected a strong group of outstanding young people who we believe will acquit themselves well in and out of competition.”
“Well done to all of these athletes for all the hard work they’ve put in to make it to this point.”
New Zealand has an extremely proud cycling history at both Olympic and Commonwealth Games level and we look forward to these athletes becoming part of that legacy.”
The 2018 Youth Olympic Games will be the third edition of the summer youth Games. The Games are a pre-elite development opportunity for the world’s most promising young athletes, allowing them to experience a multi-sport games environment while exposing them to learning and cultural opportunities and helping them on the performance pathway.

I used these the beginning of the year to loose 20 kg in about 2.5 months but now I’m happy with my weight so selling on for cheap so someone else might experience the same.

Hi all, a friend recommended that I put a post up on Neighbourly for a Give a Little Page for Austin Taylor.
I was wondering if people could share the link below to help us raise some funds so we can buy an important medical equipment to help Austin.
Cheers all,

An update on the blackspot on the corner of Thomas and Gordonton Roads:

Work to further improve safety at the Thomas Rd/Gordonton Rd intersection has been fast-tracked by Hamilton City Council in preparation for the installation of traffic signals at the intersection.
Cr Dave Macpherson, Chair of the Council’s Growth and Infrastructure Committee, says after the tragic event on 20 July, where a young man lost his life, it has further highlighted the risks are too high if people make a mistake.
“We know this is a busy intersection and the Council has been working on making it safer and to date has implemented a series of safety measures.
“There are already electronic 60km/h speed signs which are activated when vehicles are turning in the intersection, and a large number of traffic cones and other warning devices on approach to all legs of the intersection. However, these have now been supplemented with the installation of two Variable Message Boards,” Cr Macpherson says.
Funding for a signalised intersection was approved in June during the Council’s 10-Year Plan process with construction scheduled to begin 1 October 2018. Completion is by December 2018.
Chris Allen, General Manager Development Group says site preparation work for the upgrade was due to start this September, the Council is now looking at bringing this forward by one month.
“Preparation work will require the Council to introduce a Traffic Management Plan which will provide an immediate temporary reduction in the speed limit and provide safer road conditions for road users in the area.
“The speed limit will be reduced to 30km/h while the teams are out undertaking work near the road and a 60km/h speed limit will be set for afterhours.
“We understand for some people these changes have taken a long time, however it’s important to understand this is a transformational change to the intersection and we must get it right.
“Our transportation and development teams have been working hard on fast tracking this work since the beginning of the year, it takes time to confirm things like funding, land purchasing, design development, safety audits and understanding and implementing utilities services relocations.
“A signalised intersection is the preferred option rather than a roundabout as it offers improved safety via better intersection control and traffic flow management, it is safer for people on bikes and is quicker to implement,” says Mr Allen.
The Council wants to remind road users while work is happening there will be an increase in congestion on the network so extra care will be needed in the area, slow down, drive to the conditions and look twice for other road users.
Hearings will be this week for the Council’s proposal to improve safety along Gordonton Rd, between Wairere Dr and north of Thomas Rd, through a permanent reduction of the speed limit to 60km/h.
