We need your help!
The Travers MTB Series is run by a small group of voluneteers who all give up their time to help put on the races. Not just on race day but on days leading up to the event preparing the course and setting up the logistics and after the event preparing the results and series standing.
Are you riding in a later event and can help in the morning or visa versa, have you brought someone who can help while you ride? |
What we need help with
We need your help with marshalling, I have tried to answer whats you can expect to do and what we can offer in return.
What is a Marshal?
You will be given a position on the course marked on a map to stand and to support, guide and shout the odd piece of banter at the riders. You will be given either a radio or phone number to contact control if an incident does occur (this is vary rare). If you either not mobile or dont want to walk around the woods, you can help with the time keeping (this postion is a secondary check to our chip system and just involves writing the riders numbers down or shouting them out as they pass)
How long do I need to Marshal?
Ideally if you could help either with the morning session or afternoon or even all day that would be great but if its just for one race thats great.
What happens in a medical emergency?
This is very rare but if something does happen you should make sure you are safe and only then call it in to control, we will have a full equiped medical team on hand to respond and deal with the situation.
