Re: BC race…
Signing on starts at 12.00
Thanks to Dave C and Graham Martin for dealing with signing on….Looks like we will have a full field of 60 plus a handful of reserves. For EOLs it’s £20.00. Dave …if you don’t mind stopping at HQ in case there are any dropouts who want to return their numbers…thanks
Marshals
Paul W (Junction 1 at Thornton Bridge)
Richard D (Junction 2 in Cundall)
Graham Martin (Junction 3 just after finish)
Dave Kirk (Junction 4 just before Milby).
One of Rich Houghton’s Traffic Management Team will meet each of you at your allocated junction at 13.00 – 13.15. They will (probably) still be out on the circuit after marshalling the vet’s race. If you could arrive in good time at HQ to collect your Marshall bibs.
Drivers
We'll do a briefing for drivers at 13:00.
Melly (Lead car)
Nigel (2nd car)
John S (3rd car)
Broomwagon (Following car)
I know some of you have done this before so know what to do…but Commissiare will bring signage and race radios. 2nd and 3rd car may be advised to change position should a break be formed. The Following car follows the back of the race and will take the First Aiders (Red Cross). The Commissiare will hop in two of the cars as well. Hope that ok.
Please park somewhere near the HQ so we can gather in convoy by about 13:15.
I'll do a briefing to the riders at about 13:20 Drive out to the circuit (make sure you know the route!) at steady neutralised pace - racing starts after the right-hand turn onto the circuit. It’s 5 ¾ laps of the circuit. After the finish, head straight back to HQ.
Don't forget to get an envelope - with a £20 note in it - off me at some stage!
Finish Line/Judging
Phil Bixby/TomF/Dr Dave ….and anyone else please…the more hands and eyes (!) the better – All the equipment (bell/lap counter,etc. will already be at the finish)
Riders should be turning up at HQ for refreshments from around 16:15ish. As soon as we get the placings sorted we'll do the prize giving.
Please could everyone email/PM me their mobile number (if you'll have one on the day) and your email address if I haven't already got them (and I’ll let you know mine) - just in case of last minute issues. If anyone needs a lift up there let me know ASAP (unless you have already contacted Phil).
Thanks once again…This race simply wouldn’t have gone ahead without volunteers
Cheers
Cam
Ps. Sorry Phil for plagiarizing (or as I like to think…recycling) some of the content of your post
