By Grant Johnston A Wellington truckie lost his load of fruit and vegetables when taking a bend in high winds in Pirongia about 10.30pm on Wednesday. A spokesperson for Straight Haul said the accident on the corner of Baffi n and McClure Streets was caused by one of the huge gusts of wind in the district last week. The B train headed from Auckland to Wel- lington fl ipped on the road and slid into the eastern bank.

Te Awamutu Sports’ Nathan White is putting real pressure on Waikato’s incumbent props. His powerful scrummaging on NPC debut against Southland helped the Mooloo Men de- molish the Stags’ pack and saw him selected in the starting line-up for Sunday’s Shield challenge against Bay of Plenty. White was presented with his Waikato team tie after the Southland match, having played his third game for the province. It was a proud moment for the 22-year-old - his parents Doug and Robyn and sister Rachel were all in the supporters room when the presentation was made. The tie has been a long time coming. His two other appearances for Waikato (two Opportunity Ohaupo - Lifestyle Plus! years apart) were both in non-competition games. He played 20 minutes against Hawkes Bay in Na- • 2.294ha 3 bedroom home + outside room • School bus at gate pier (2002) and made the starting line-up against • 15 varieties of fruit trees incl approx 40 mature Macadamia & Sweet Chestnuts Northland earlier this month. • 2 large double garages • Swimming pool If White continues to make the most of his Provisional Reserve under $401,000 (incl GST) chances as he serves his ‘apprenticeship’, he seems destined to have a long and illustrious 4514 State Highway 3, Ohaupo/Te Awamutu career for the province.

The riders had to contend with rain and sub 10 degrees temperature in Timaru. They both gated well on their Suzuki RM250s in race one. King won from a strong fi nishing Ham, with Penny fourth. It was a welcome return to the fray by Penny, recovering from a wrist reconstruction. New Zealand’s No 2 plate holder in the 250 class found the conditions tough in race two. A few mistakes and a collision with another rider relegating him to sixth position. King made it two wins from two starts, with Ham again having to settle for second. Race three saw Penny fi re out of the gate with his best start of the day. He trailed King, with Ham third. King was well in control, appearing headed for a three-peat. Then, in what can only be described as the most bizarre occurence, King’s CR250 Honda ran out        of fuel, leaving him stranded at the back of the          !!   circuit.
