The rental squeeze continues to hit Nelson hard as the pressure of the housing market makes an increasing number of people homeless, with some even resorting to hiring vehicles to live in. The problem is being highlighted once again by social agencies as Nelson City Council and central government continue to fight homelessness in the region. Philip Chapman from The Male Room says it not unusual to find people living in vehicles because they have nowhere else to go. “There is lots of it going on, in cars and tents. I knew of a guy living in his car with three dogs, and it’s women and couples, too. We had one guy parked out the back here living out of his van.” Some people are even renting cars to live in, instead of a house. “A man who came through here said, for him, it was cheaper for him to rent a car from a car hire company on a long-term contract. He just slept on a mattress in the back and stopped at the airport every morning for a shower. He had it all mapped out,” says Philip. Property management general manager at Summit Real Estate, Stewart Henry, says they are seeing a constant demand for rental properties. “We are getting around 10 - 15 people viewing each rental and around five will apply. But, one third won’t be accepted after credit checks.” He says private listings are becoming harder to find. “More landlords are listing their rentals through agencies. It’s becoming more complicated because of all the law changes, so they say, ‘can you just deal with it for us, please?’”

“We should be looking after our own first. Of course the homeless need a place to clean themselves and go toilet, unless you want them going in the street.”

He says a busy winter period last year has also put pressure on the rental market. “There was no drop-off last winter like usual and before Christmas was very busy.” Director of the Nelson Tasman Housing Trust, Carrie Mozena, says they are fielding at least six enquires a week from people living in cars, vans or caravans. “We have 43 houses but a very low turn-over. We only have around three or four vacancies a year,” she says. “In the past two months we’ve had more calls from people who are in the workforce but have to leave their rental due to a fixedterm tenancy ending, or due to their house being put on the market.” She says bad credit is not necessarily a barrier for them
A constant demand for rentals is pushing some to the limits.

We understand that it can be easy to get into financial trouble and try to look beyond the surface.” As of September 2019, there were 178 on the waiting list for public
housing in the region, compared to 123 the previous year. To combat homelessness, The Male Room has teamed up with other local agencies, including Te Piki Oranga and Gateway Housing Trust, under the leadership of The Salvation Army, to introduce a new initiative called Housing First Nelson Tasman. The Government-funded programme aims to house and support homeless people with multiple, high and complex needs and is an expansion of a nationwide programme administered by The Ministry of Housing and Urban Development. Salvation Army envoy and Director Community Ministries, Ros Vercoe, says a team leader has been hired and is due to start in February. “Once they have a housing
procurement tenancy manager in place, they will start the process of acquiring properties for people to live in. That’s when we can start receiving referrals.” Chair of council’s community services committee Matt Lawrey says he wants to prioritise homelessness in Nelson this term. “It’s vital that the work we can get involved with through central government helps all people with housing problems in our region,” he says. “There’s people sleeping rough in our city centre, but there’s also women with children who don’t know if they’ll have a roof over their heads from one day to the next.” Has the rental squeeze put you or your family in a desperate situation?

Fire risk prompts reserve warning Locally Owned and Operated

Charles Anderson Editor

Increasing fire risk across Nelson has prompted the council to urge walkers to stay in the lower parts of certain reserves in case a blaze breaks out. The warning is to aide evacuation in case of a fire, a spokesperson says. The risk is increasing due to drying winds and low rainfall and the Nelson City Council will be erecting signage on its wellused trails to make sure users are aware of the rising fire risk. Fires are now banned in all reserves. In those areas, council recommends people only use the reserve early in the morning or in the evening. “Please avoid high fire risk areas, such as reserves with forest or dense vegetation, in the afternoon when conditions are at their warmest.” Council strongly advises that reserve users remain in the lower areas only of the following reserves, this is for ease of evacuation in the case of a fire. • Grampians Reserve • Tantragee Reserve (Codgers) • Sir Stanley Whitehead

Reserve • Botanical Hill Reserve • Brook Conservation Reserve • Maitai Water Reserve • Marsden Valley Reserve • Roding Water Reserve The BUI (Build Up Index) has reached 60. The BUI is used by Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) and other agencies to measure fire risk – it’s “an indicator of the difficulty in suppressing a fire that has started”. If the BUI reaches 80, council will be seeking FENZ advice on the possibility of closing reserves with a high risk profile. At a BUI of 100, all reserves will close. There is now a complete fire ban
in all parks and reserves. Please take note of this advice for your own safety and if you see signs of smoke or fire in any reserves please call 111 immediately. The move comes as, last Friday, fire crews from around Nelson battled an early morning blaze at a Tahunanui home. A fire spokesperson said that crews from Nelson, Stoke, Richmond, Hira and Appleby were called to the incident at about 2.10am and acted quickly to prevent it spreading to neighbouring properties. Photos from the site show that the single storey home and bush around the property was well ablaze. The fire was put out by 3.40am.

Days of ‘wish-cycling’ are over NEWS Charles Anderson The Nelson City Council is preparing to send a letter to local retailers asking them to consider the way they package their goods as part of a push to get Nelsonians to better recycle. The move comes after the council decided to reduce its recycling to include only glass, fibre, steel, aluminium, and plastics numbered 1, 2 and 5 on a fortnightly basis until a viable long-term, sustainable recycling option was secured for the plastics that can no longer be recycled. Come the middle of the year, these unrecyclable plastics would instead be sent to landfill. “We took a view that unless that we can be sure that the products we are sending off shore are truly being recycled, we are not going to send them there,” says councillor Brian McGurk, who chairs the infrastructure committee. “The days of sending stuff over the horizon are over. It’s untenable.” Of about 240,000 tonnes of recycling collected in Nelson, an average of nearly 150,000 tonnes was plastic types 1 and 2, figures from the council show. Brian says that since council introduced yellow recycling wheelie bins, the volume of material had gone up 40 per cent. However, he admitted that there needed to be a lot more education about what could
Nelson Environment Centre manager Anton Drazevic says the council’s recycling move is a positive one. Photo: Charles Anderson. and what couldn’t be recycled, including how products needed to be rinsed or sometimes washed before putting them in the recycling bin. He says the letter will be telling retailers about the intent of their policy and how council hoped they would work to limit the amount of non-recyclable products they store. “People are wanting to do the right thing.” However, a Nelson Weekly poll on Facebook, which asked if people would change what they bought
because of the council policy, was less than encouraging. Of the over 700 votes, about 70 per cent of respondents said they would not change their habits. “Food is expensive enough as it is,” said Rachel Thompson. “But we are supposed to change what we can afford to buy because the packaging isn’t the right number? Get real.” Steph Anderson said she would try to but “if the food comes in the wrong packaging, I’m still probably going to buy it. If there is two of the same items in
different packaging, I will take the recyclable one.” Karen Whiting said it was time for manufacturers and supermarkets to step up. “Maybe if we started returning all this packaging that’s nonrecyclable to them, they’d soon be looking for alternatives.” Which is the message from Nelson Environment Centre manager Anton Drazevic He says one of the biggest challenges with recycling is contaminated material. “Sorting at source is the most effective way of getting cleaner material and that it has a higher likelihood of being recycled.” He says it was positive that the council was moving in this direction and being transparent about things that would end up in landfill. “We all put things in the recycling bin with the hope that it will be recycled. But that is just ‘wishcycling’.” Anton says people need to think about whether they need to buy a certain product and, if they do, asking whether they could leave the packaging at the retailer. “The more pressure that is on retailers the more pressure there is that they will change their packaging for consumer desire.” He says that New Zealand has clean air, waterways and land, relative to the rest of the world. “But we shouldn’t take that for granted.”
Subsidy for reusable cups: Nelson City Council is offering a subsidy to local cafés and coffee carts to bolster the use of reusable takeaway cups. A subsidy of up to $120 is available to cafés and coffee carts to take part in a cup bond scheme. Cup bond programmes allow customers to “borrow” a cup from the café for a small fee, and either return the cup to any participating cafe to get their bond back, or swap it for a new cup with their next hot drink. Group manager infrastructure Alec Louverdis said the vast majority of disposable takeaway cups are not recyclable and ended up in landfill. The subsidy was one small step to help make Nelson disposable cupfree.

Studying music at NMIT ‘changed my approach to education’ Ngaio Richards almost gave up on her dream of studying music when her experience at university failed to live up to her expectations. But when she discovered the New Zealand Certificate in Music programme at NMIT, she realised she could get the more personalised education in her hometown. Ngaio moved from Nelson to Wellington in 2015 straight after high school to study music at university, but the experience of big class sizes wasn’t the right fit for her. She tried switching to another degree, but she soon found herself back in Nelson thinking that study wasn’t for her. That’s when she heard about the music programme at NMIT and decided to enrol. Ngaio says the decision paid off as she finally found study inspiring, fun, challenging and rewarding. The Certificate in Music (Level 4) is a one-year course designed to prepare you to be a professional musician, sound technician or event management assistant. Students get to use NMIT’s state-of-the-art facilities including the Johnny Cash performance theatre and recording studios. Ngaio says the course provides a good balance of theory and practical experience, and the tutors were much more involved than her university lecturers.
“The tutors also took the time to understand how each person learnt and what we need to apply the theory into our work. For me that was really key and allowed me to enjoy my study experience,” she says. “At uni you don’t even know your tutor, but at NMIT I didn’t feel like I was just a number.” The guitarist and vocalist learned new skills such as how to set up a music venue and use professional recording software. She also developed her songwriting and production abilities and had the opportunity to learn from successful Kiwi musicians, Julia Deans and Hollie Smith. Ngaio says the facilities at NMIT are “awesome” and students always have the freedom to use the music space whenever they feel inspired. “I’ve realised that you don’t need to leave Nelson to get good quality education. My experience at NMIT was way better than my time at university. “I feel inspired now with my music and I have music goals. I’m keen to record my music and catch up with my classmates to play gigs.” For more information about NMIT’s Music programmes, visit nmit.ac.nz/music Business Update. Adv.

Origin’s Wellington flights welcomed Staff Reporter
Nelson Tasman-based airline Originair has added a NelsonWellington route to its offering in response to passenger demand. “Our customers have been asking us to consider a NelsonWellington route and we’re really pleased to be able to respond to that interest,” says Originair’s CEO Robert Inglis. Originair’s new Wellington service will initially be limited to 10 sectors per week,
concentrating on peak demand times. “We’re not offering an extensive schedule at the outset but we hope that it will provide extra capacity at times that are most useful to travellers on that route,” says Robert. The move comes after Jetstar ended flights to Nelson, Napier, New Plymouth and Palmerston North on November 30, saying that the airline’s regional flights were loss-making, a combination of higher costs and a softening of

John Milford, chief executive of Business Central, says the service is welcome news to businesses in the region. “With Jetstar pulling out of regional hubs there has been a need for more competition in the regional services and we are delighted that Originair has made the decision to step in and fill the gap. “The increasing demand for the service that Originair experienced is exactly what we
have been hearing from our members, both in Wellington and in the regions, who often need to travel within the area for business. “We can certainly see there will be a positive impact on business connectivity and domestic tourism to Nelson from Wellington. Nelson Tasman-based Originair was established in 2015 and has provided services to Palmerston North, New Plymouth, Napier and Wellington.

Flax story borne of history Charles Anderson Editor
charles@nelsonweekly.co.nz
Ray Caird was running up the Centre of New Zealand when he looked out to see the flax that sits at the top in full colour. He had been working on an idea to write a story about his family history – one that connected them to the flax milling industry that dominated New Zealand in the late 19th century. But Ray needed a way in. “The flax was in full bloom,” he says of that run up the hill. “I thought ‘that’s the story’.” So, Ray embarked on a four year journey of research and writing that has ended up in his book ‘Blood of the Flax’ being launched. “It is a story of the beauty and versatility of the plant. It is all around the world, it is everywhere, and we take it for granted.” The book uses poetry-prose style, along with more than 100
photographs, to explore all the ways that the plant, also known as harakeke, intersects with the human world. Whether it is the very beginning of its evolution 30 million years ago when Gondwanaland was underwater, or the way that Maori have used it in weaving, or how it is used on the fashion runways of New York City - the book covers a lot of ground. “We take harakeke for granted because it’s all around us,” Ray says. “The paths on that hill are a seasonal delight as the flax opens and flowers. I’ve become an addict.” Ray first launched ‘Blood of the Flax’ last year and embarked on a 1000km flax “survival’ bike riding tour down the South Island. “It was a huge relief to have the book out,” he says. “It’s a triumph really. You are fighting a lot of factors. This is a niche book.” The book is available from Nelson bookshops and from The Copypress in Pascoe St and other bookstores around Nelson.

He says it takes him about two-and-a-half hours to complete every Wednesday by himself, but sometimes he gets a bit of help from staff at the assisted-living facility where he resides. “It’s something to do so I don’t sit around and get bored.

Your Voice Transport issues: The January 15 article regarding the pending announcement by Nelson council regarding the Southern Link seems to overlook the fact that we already know the outcome. When campaigning for re-election, Nelson’s mayor did a U-turn on the Southern Link when she spoke at Victory. There is, as a result, no support from council for the road which is vitally needed if large truck transport in and out of the city is not going to be strangled by the increasing traffic volumes. Either support the road, or else council needs to cancel all consents for big new subdivisions which are now in the pipeline. Dan McGuire Brook Sanctuary: The Brook Sanctuary report admits: ''We've been tested with mice, rats and weasels and it's been a constant battle keeping them out.'' So their 'pest-proof ' fence is anything but that, just as the trustees were warned when they first proposed that site in hilly terrain subject also to subsidence. They have already learned the cost of subsidence, still repairing the damage to the historic railway track. Ren Kempthorne Brook Sanctuary confirms entry charges: I've lived in The Brook 18 years and used to walk
the track to the old water source all the time. Last time I went up with my two young kids it cost me $10 - which I know isn't a huge amount, but it stops us from going regularly. I see more birds in my own yard anyway. Come on kids, off to the Maitai! Andrea Warn For a sanctuary like this, $8 admission for adult citizens is a pittance. Seems people want nature experiences to cost nothing. How are overheads supposed to be met? By a donation from Tane, God of Forests? I assist in running the public nights at the Cawthron Atkinson Observatory. We charge a small admission. I'm guessing there're plenty who think we should charge nothing, too. Dennis Goodman And the Nelsonians who cannot afford this fee? How do they enter? This is such a disappointing decision. Lisa Lawrence If you contribute to the sanctuary in volunteer work, you, of course, get in free. I've seen fantastic improvements there, the birdlife is, of course, great and getting better all the time, but the vegetation free from browsing by goats, deer and possums has been stunning. And there is now a beautiful network of tracks throughout the sanctuary that makes the whole area so much more accessible. Peter Olorenshaw

Well, kind of puts me off going now. Like, I didn’t mind the donations every so often, but now it’s a forced $8 dollars for a walk. As much as I love the birds and taking photos, I won’t be going as often as I once did. Jordan Woolley It's such as reasonable entry fee - so much cheaper than Zealandia in Wellington. Build a science museum at the bottom and use the money for maintenance. Anonymous Freedom campers welcomed into city: We have three motor camps which I believe are leased from the council at some expense. Why should the council offer free services in direct opposition to these leasees? The other elephant in the room is the reality that these freedom campers still have find a place to camp so this is not a solution to the defecating, littering and unsightliness of van-filled carparks around our city. Neil Chesterman So, does this mean I can come and dump my rubbish there for free?? And why isn’t The Brook motor camp utilised? I'll be coming to fill up my water, too. Frances Minogue Nelson’s transport to be decided: This suggestion will probably cause me grief but why not bring back the train, could solve the problem. Rose Neame
Why not build an eastern link over behind The Brook and Maitai all the way to Richmond behind Saxton Field? That’s rural still. Dan Joz Lec The councils are making a killing out of all the subdivisions, i.e. rates, developers, building roads and cycleways. They need to invest in the infrastructure to keep up! Mick Zeewoldt School holidays and no congestion. Wait! No kids in cars removes problem! Hmmm. Tim Monck-Mason We need to query our car culture and try to adopt public transport and bikes into the city. Bruce Bell Just teach everyone how to work a roundabout and how merging lanes work, and hey presto, problem fixed. Nigel Intemann Need to sort out the congestion. Why not make Waimea Rd two lanes all the way from Nelson? There are much busier roads in Aussie with higher speed limits and it seems to work there. Liam Ryan I've been telling folks for the last 15 years that the Nelson region will become the most populated in the South Island at some point in the future.
Nelson Matters The holiday break with family and friends reminds me of just how blessed we are in Nelson with so many opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. I started my holiday with an early morning fish in Tasman Bay with my brother-in-law and our boys. It was as still as a mill pond and by sunrise we had caught two good-sized snapper. How many places in the world can you so easily catch a fish within 20 minutes of a city’s port? Full marks to Nelson City Council for the recent upgrade of the boat ramp and parking facilities. My favourite recreation is kayaking. I love the quiet exercise and
being so close to the water. My preference has switched from white-water to sea kayaking with age. We are spoilt for choice for places to go between the Abel Tasman, Marlborough Sounds, Waimea Inlet, Cable Bay and Whanganui Inlet. Nelson is also fortunate to have Kayak HQ in Port Nelson. It was also great to get out on our stunning cycle ways. Biking is booming and Nelson has a network of trails to suit all tastes and skill levels. It was one of the most positive legacies of the last National Government. Nelson’s Coppermine Trail was one of the first projects nation-
11
ally. I know of nowhere in the world you can have such a great mountain bike experience so close to a city. The recent upgrades by our Nelson Tasman Cycle Trails Trust make it even better. The Great Taste Trail is a massive undertaking that we are progressively bringing to fruition. The trust has done an amazing job of rebuilding the coastal Waimea Inlet section after Cyclone Gita and the Tasman District Council deserves praise for ensuring continuity of the Mapua ferry service to Rabbit Island. We need to support the Trust’s work to complete the next sections from Kohatu to
Everyone wants to live here, but the planners don't seem to realise that they should be putting infrastructure in to support this growth. If no sensible plans from roading and water are implemented, we'll soon be in a fine mess. Paul Gray
Intra-urban highways alone always exacerbate (i.e. never alleviate) congestion. Prove me wrong with one example. Andy Williams Regular passenger transport ferry service between Motueka, Mapua and Nelson. Andrei Iwanow
Concerns over digs at historic sites: I love to metal detect! It’s great fun and you learn so much! The thing that really annoys me is when you get idiots like these people who go to the wrong places with no permission and give us all a bad name! To the people who have done this, you are idiots. Tessa Thompson Ignorant people destroying our hobby. Gary Coker
It's the rat plagues DOC keep banging on about… in biblical proportions. Merrick Allan Just could be the freedom campers cleaning up after themselves! Chris Kirby

Woodstock and round the golf course to Tahunanui beach. I spent this last weekend with friends in the Nelson Lakes National Park, overnighting at the Cupola Hut up the Travers Valley. These rugged snow-capped mountains, crystal clear lakes and rivers, and grassy meadows on the river flats are as beautiful as anywhere in the world, yet on our doorstep. Sighting a stoat on the banks of the Travers River and the general lack of birdlife in the Nelson Lakes National Park reminds me of how much of a challenge we have with predators. I cannot praise loud enough so many DOC and
community initiatives to save our birdlife, including the latest sanctuary on Farewell Spit. The reintroduction of kaka to Abel Tasman and takahe to Kahurangi are the dividends from effective pest control and we need to do more. I have only one gripe from my experiences over summer. We should not allow people with no on-board toilet facilities to freely camp in areas like the Takaka River. We need a law that makes it plain that people must overnight in campgrounds unless they are fully self-contained. I will be further pursuing this issue in Parliament this year. Advert.

The start of the school year is an exciting time for most kids. Here are some tips to help you help your child make the most of it.
Getting ready for the first day • If your child is new to the school, visit the school grounds over the holidays to help them feel comfortable with their new surroundings. • Walking, scooting or cycling to school is a great start to the day, practice the safest route to school over the holidays. • It’s easy to let bedtimes, and getting-up times, slip during the school holidays. Start getting back into a school bedtime routine a few days before school starts so your child has time to adjust. • If your child is anxious about their first day, make time to talk to them about their worries. There's loads of advice online about how to support anxious children, listening and asking rather than telling them not to worry. • If your child is starting school
child’s books can be really time consuming – don’t leave it till the night before. Look online for ideas such as wrapping the books in plain paper and getting your child to decorate – this can be cheaper and a lot more fun than buying sticky covering. Budgeting for school • Many parents are happy to make a donation to their school, but remember that donations are voluntary payments that can be paid in full, in part or not at all. • If you do make a donation to your school, you can claim back one third of it through Inland Revenue. • The start of the school year can be an expensive time for parents.

Local actor returns for show on parenthood Kate Russell Reporter
kate@nelsonweekly.co.nz
Chronic sleep deprivation, getting back into the workforce and rekindling your love life are all things new parents can relate to - so a local actor has decided to create a “cathartic” play about those experiences. Directed by Nelson-bred Fingal Pollock, ‘Femme Natale’ is an entertaining take on parenting, performed by four actors. “It’s a very relatable show. It’s dealing with the preschool years but in very different ways. There’s a lot of real raw emotion but it’s all done with a funny twist.” Think two giant breasts talking to each other and a giant grumpy sanitary pad who is always in a foul mood. Now living in Wellington, Fingal was in the throes of new parenthood when she wrote the show, with a four-year-old son and a one-year-old daughter. After being part of the women’s comedy company ‘Hens’ Teeth’, she got a group of parents together to write and perform a skit each. “I thought, ‘if we’re going to get mothers with little children on the stage, this is how we do it’ because writing a whole show is
Nelson’s Fingal Pollock is directing ‘Femme Natale’ which is on at The Suter next month. Photo: Kate Russell. impossible. “We only had two rehearsals because no one had any time, but it was great. It brought us back into the sphere of theatre and professional performance after having a few years off. It’s a really hard industry to be in when you’ve got little kids.” The following year she did a sequel and then took the best from both and created a twoact show. Other cast members include multi-award-winning playwright, filmmaker and actress of TV’s McPhail and Gadsby fame, April Phillips, actor/author Tracey Savage and stay-at-home-dad, Jeremy Nelson.
Fingal says she is “excited but nervous” to bring it to her hometown. “A lot of the audience will be people who knew me as a little girl … and the show can get a little risqué.” And it’s not just for mums. “A lot of men came and enjoyed it, even men in their 40s with no children liked the show. I was pleasantly surprised,” she says. “It’s definitely about children, not for them. In ten years, I’ll do the teenager sequel - so stay posted.” ‘Femme Natale’ is on 28 and 29 February, 7:30pm at The Suter Gallery Theatre. Tickets are available from www.ticketrocket.co.nz

The Tribe Dance Academy was created by Zariyah and Shylah Andrews. They are sisters who dance as a duo called Iconic Duo. Iconic are two-time champions at Hip Hop Unite NZ, and have earned themselves a 4th place title at a world level in The Netherlands 2019. Zariyah and Shylah have a passion for hip hop dance and enjoy sharing their passion, and dancing in the community. They often dance at local events and have taught workshops in primary schools. Zariyah and Shylah will also appear on a new dance TV series called K pop academy later in the year. The girl's decision to open their own dance studio means they can focus on upskilling others in their community while still competing as a duo.

Bowlers are put into categories based on their different visual abilities with Gordon a B2 and Steve B4. “It makes us sound like Bananas in Pajamas,” Gordon jokes.
Steve’s weekend didn’t end there as he followed the victory with gold in the singles as well. This comes on the back of his win at the nationals last year. “It’s more satisfying being able to back it up, a greater sense of achievement in the sense that nationals wasn’t a fluke.” He says he now has more selfbelief about going on to higher honours. “It makes it more of a reality of what the possibilities are.” Those possibilities have seen him set his sights on the trans- Tasman tournament later this year.
The Blind Jacks team is named at end of the month, Gordon says his partner is a “very good chance to represent that team”. With Steve’s father and Gordon’s brother-in-law acting as the pair’s directors, Steve says it is always a fun time on and off the green. “A lot of humour, a lot of laughing, we enjoy each other’s company.” Gordon says the social aspect of the sport is crucial to those living with a disability. “The chance to have those connections is so important, it can be easy to become isolated.” Gordon says he has known several players who have had serious mental health challenges and playing bowls made all the difference. “Anyone else who is visionimpaired, come and join us, we would love to have you come along.” Tournaments are self-funded, so anyone willing to contribute to costs to help cover travel costs can contact oldfield.gordon@ gmail.com

Serrurier ton secures win
There were some close wins and outstanding individual performances in the latest round of 110 overs club cricket competition on Saturday. There was definitely some tension as Nelson College eventually chased down their small challenge of 109 at Brightwater against Wanderers. At 68 for eight the odds were firmly in the combined team’s favour until the unorthodox Dimitri van der Colk and Jack MacNeil saw them reach the total.

Tasman hammer Southern in Blenheim Jonty Dine Reporter

Tasman United’s recent resurgence continued in emphatic fashion in Blenheim on Saturday afternoon as they dismantled Southern United 5-0. There were goals galore at Lansdowne Park as the hosts gave the Marlborough fans plenty to shout about in their first appearance over the Whangamoa this season. Tasman opened the scoring in blistering style as Jean Phillipe Saiko’s superb individual effort put his side ahead after only six minutes. The New Caledonian striker looked in ominous form and Tasman soon went 2-0 up as skipper Fox Slotemaker found the back of the net. Things slowed at the back end of

New signing Ben Watson ensured the momentum remained with Tasman after the break, with a thunderous strike in the 55th minute to effectively put the game to bed. Jesse Randall piled on the misery for the visitors with a far post finish 10 minutes later. Corey Vickers put the
exclamation mark on a resounding performance to seal the 5-0 victory. Tasman United jumps to fourth on the premiership table with its fourth win of the season and next week will travel to Auckland to take on the ninth placed Waitakere United.

Valued Team brings Wealth of Experience
Three years ago, Brendon and Rochelle Mathews first opened The Bike Station in central Nelson and today the vibrant, expanding business has fantastic stock and a passionate, experienced team. Rochelle says contrary to what some may think, Ebikes aren’t a lazy option. “Ours are pedal-electric, so you still have to pedal but you get assistance as
you need it, so they’re suited to anyone, including those with a medical condition. “Using an E-bike allows me to get uphill quickly and ride for longer. They’re great enablers. I can do a
Staff are a massive part of The Bike Station. “Without them, we wouldn’t be here today,” Rochelle says. From the outset, Brendon and Rochelle have been focussed on having high-quality staff and, because they all have significant experience with bikes, the couple have 100% faith in their ability to provide fantastic service. Yohann, who is from the UK, says, “It’s been useful to experience how bike shops operate in other countries, including New Zealand. I picked Nelson because of its awesome mountainbiking trails and The Bike Station had cool brands, a nice workshop and it’s a great place to work.” Meanwhile, two-time national track cycling champion and national record
holder Kaio, loves working at The Bike Station while teaching young bike enthusiasts (in schools) how to ride and it helps build up the local junior base. Hunter, who has recently left college has been working fulltime at the store since November last year. “I’ve done a lot of mountainbike racing, so my passion has inspired me to work here as a bike mechanic and be part of the mountainbiking community. It’s an awesome business and getting to work on bikes all day long is great.” Lindsay, who has been with The Bike Station for just under two years, says he had been looking to get back into the bike industry as a mechanic after a stint in Whistler, Canada. “This is a nice place to work; a good bunch of guys. They have the same kind of passion that I have for mountainbiking, so it’s a no-brainer really.” Finally, Sam began working for the business in December after moving from Auckland. “I started as a customer and ended up working here; I love the team; we all get on well. It’s always a good sign of a great workplace
