The committee of the Feilding Cycling Club will meet in the club room at 8 o’clock to-morrow evening
Wbat with the high winds and the excessive number of boulders on the roads, cycling is not the moat enjoyable mode of locomotion in Feilding and its immediate district.
The FeiJding Cycling Club evidently iniend to have the racing track on the Oval in first-class condition for the bicycle races to be held there on Wednesday next (Anniversary Day). Several members of the club were busy yesterday afternoon cutting the graßS with lawnmowers, which had been kindly lent for the occasion, and those intending competitors who were training last evening expressed great satisfaction with the im provement, and consider the track to be in much better condition than in former years. The Secretary of the local Cycling Club has received a letter from the Rangitikei Cycling Club, enclosing a copy of the ridiculous bye-law passed by the Bangitikei County Council ordering cyclists to dismount within on chain of meeting any person riding or driv.ng horses and to pull off the road, and asking the Feilding Cycling Club to appoint delegates to wait upon the Council at the next meeting and endeavour to get the bye-law amended.
