Pahiatua played its part in the running of the only World 2.2 Union Cycliste International (UCI)-sanctioned annual event in New Zealand, the Trust House Cycle Classic, held from January 13-17 in Wairarapa and Wellington.
Team manager for Couplands Bakery/Booths Transport Team, Kevin Laskey, comes from Pahiatua. Included in the six-man team he led was Madi HartleyBrown, also from Pahiatua.
McCormick, who won the New Zealand Cycle Classic in 2018, was shocked their breakaway lasted. “It’s funny because last night I said there’s no point going into a breakaway in this stage because you always get caught but it was just the right combination of guys. Regan and Glenn were super strong, and it just ended out, that we stayed away,” McCormick said. Race director Jorge Sandoval said it was the first time in the stage’s history that the peloton had not caught a breakaway.
