The third annual meeting of the Feilding Cycling Club will be held on the Feilding Oval on Friday, January 22, when a first-class programme of nine cycling and three pedestrian events is submitted. The entries close on Friday next, Jan. 8, and it is expected some of the best riders in this island, including the R-angitikei crack, F. Hunt, will be among the starters.
