Notes:
1.
Help our already busy volunteers by ensuring you enter using your correct club
DAR number and your correct timing chip number.
2.
Our timing system is good but it can’t read minds, so please make sure you go
over the mats (those are the blue things on the ground, usually highlighted by
orange witches hats J )
3.
Once finished your race do remember to not go over the mats again while still
wearing your timing chip. Thanks for your help here!
4.
Don’t forget your timing chip.
5.
The team from Blue Cycles NT will be present to assist at
our event and are more than willing to help members out who find themselves in
a last minute mechanical pickle!
