Once again Tineli is a major sponsor of the Novice Tour of the Manawatu and supplier of the overall and category leaders' jerseys.

This is the third year Tineli has sponsored the tour and it continues a long association with the event for Tineli staff members Tim Vincent and Robin Reid who both raced in the tour as novices in the early 90's.

An expected field of 120 young riders will compete for the EMC2 Yellow Jersey, the Tineli Sprint Ace Jersey and the King and Queen of the Mountain Jerseys in the rolling hills surrounding Palmerston North on Sunday 26 September 2010.
