World Champions for Christchurch cycling festival

Christchurch, New Zealand's inaugural Armstrong Prestige Festival of Cycling will feature World Champions Greg Henderson and Katie Mactier at the two day event on December 3 and 4. Henderson, from Dunedin, is a three-time Olympian and Commonwealth and World champion. Australian Katie Mactier is a current World Champion and Olympic silver medallist on the track. Both riders are using the Armstrong Prestige Festival of Cycling as a major part of their build up for the Melbourne's Commonwealth Games in March.

"The race comes at a good time for both of us," says Henderson. "It will serve as a good test of form and fitness leading into our Commonwealth Games campaign."
