A group of men lift a damaged motorbike onto a trailer after it crashed into a ute near Feilding.
A crash between a ute and a motorbike has left one person seriously injured on the outskirts of Feilding. The truck, carrying a horse float with two horses inside, was turning into a driveway on Awahuri Feilding Rd just before 3pm on Friday when the crash occurred. The motorbike collided with the front-left side of the hood of the truck, sending the driver of the bike over the bonnet, with the pillion remaining on the bike, said Shane Wareham, husband of the ute s driver Andrea Wareham.

Dannevirke New World worker Rachel Cammock says getting back to work will be a short oasis of normal while she waits for surgery to remove a second large tumour growing under her ribcage.
A popular Dannevirke supermarket worker is itching to get back to the produce section after having a tumour the size of a honeydew melon removed from her abdomen. Rachel Cammock has worked at the Dannevirke New World for 20 years, and the friendly, chatty redhead has been notably absent over the past month. In November, her doctor found a large tumour on her ovaries and a follow-up CT scan at Palmerston North Hospital discovered a second tumour in her chest.
