Marshals, helpers, drivers for the Cub RR Day 28th June

Post by PhilBixby »

Just bumping this onto the "General" board as it's looming nearer (yes, I'll be spending a couple of hours today inputting LVRC entrants into the start list - none of this fancy BC internet entry malarkey!).

For the morning vets race I've got so far:-
Drivers / Helpers:- Mart66, craigdabrown, Cam B - please can you all let me know if you're happy to drive?

I'll need four drivers and a minimum of four helpers (to pair up with the Traffic Management team). We've got loads of entries rolling in and I've booked good weather. Drivers will get petrol money, and everyone will get Your Bike Shed vouchers. It's a popular event and very much appreciated by the over-forties! As I've mentioned elsewhere, stick your hand up for this and you won't get pestered again until 2016!!!

Hi Phil

I volunteered to marshal at the Vets. race in the morning and at the B.C. race in the afternoon.
Haven't driven at a race before, so didn't put my name down to do that. However, if you do require a driver for the morning, and a regular isn't available, then I'll do that. Not sure the racers will enjoy riding behind my old Toyota Yaris though.

Thanks,

Craig

Craig-when full on racing don't think anybody is thinking/worrying about the type of lead car!!

It was more to do with the fumes than the aesthetics Dave. But it's not that bad and I'm happy to help wherever required.

Excellent stuff! I've now got:-

Drivers:- Muzzy, Max, Dave C, Cam - so we're sorted there!
Marshals:- Paul W, Mart66, and craigdabrown - so I need three more marshals.

I'm delighted to say the very wonderful Cath has said she should be able to head the catering squad for the day, meaning the legendary Clifton refreshments will once again be many people's fondest memories of it. Please can I have one or two volunteers to help her?

Thanks folks!

Feedback from the recent Vets Nationals:-

"Great champs. Thanks again for everyone's brilliant efforts"
"Thanks for all the hard work you and your team put in yesterday. It was a pleasure to ride in the event"
...and tucked in with a RR Day entry:- "thanks to all for the work put into this race - it's always one of the best each year!"

Hi Phil,
I can marshal the Vet's race, or help out wherever else.

Cheers,
Pete Hook.

Many thanks Pete! There's a Your Bike Shed afternoon tea voucher with your name on it!

Two more marshals only! There'll be old blokes, going very fast! There'll be cake! There'll be dayglo vests and the power to stop traffic!! :D
