Lara - Thanks Louise and all of the organising commitee. The whole weekend was fantastic and really well organised. It was lovely to see so many smiling faces enjoying the racing and each others company.
I cant wait to race again next year!
Ace was such a wonderful man and this weekend really was the perfect way to honour his legacy. Thanks so much for making it happen.

from Waiata Ngataki - Tamanukau, Manukau Master Womens' W6 - "Just a big shout out to the family, organisers, sponsors, helpers and everyone involved, it takes a lot to organise just a memorial but to add a race in with that must of been huge! I think Louise and her family did her husband proud and i don’t even know the man but the lead up to the race the race itself and after function was clearly a show of appreciation to his life long passion to the sport...the thoughts behind the whole event left me in awe of a person i don’t even know but know now!"
