General Rules

1. I reserve the right to make up new rules or change existing rules as I see fit and at anytime. If you don't like it then tough biscuits, organize your own races! But seriously any rule changes I make will always have the goal of making racing even and fair or reduce the risk of crashing and injury.
   
2. Follow the instructions of any race marshal or race manager at all times.
3. Races will start at the advertised time according to the race managers watch. If you are late for your time trial start you may begin immediately but your time will not be adjusted from your official start time.
4. All riders who wish to race must supply their name, IC/passport number, and contact details for themselves and next of kin.
5. Respect the grade that you are placed in. The more races you turn up too the easier it is for us to grade you appropriately.
   
6. Respect riders of all abilities, rather than berating cyclists who make mistakes take the time to educate them so everyone learns better racing skills.

1. All roads should be considered open and un-managed even if race marshals are present.
   
2. Take all normal precautions when turning into or crossing roads.
3. Always ride on the left hand side or shoulder of the road.
4. Descend under control and never cross the center line.
5. Do not attempt to draft off passing vehicles.
   
6. When sprinting for the finish you must hold a straight line once you are 500m out from the line. You may not make body contact or serve into your opponent.
