McDonalds sponsors track rider of the week

At the end of each road bikes on track and track racing each week, a rider will be awarded a Big Mac voucher and a drink bottle.
Get amongst it team!

Road bikes on track– Starts 1:30pm, arrive about 1pm for registration for season warm up.

At this first meeting we ask you to write down your contact details, sign the wavier form and donate a gold coin to go towards spot prizes at the end of the season.

Cost- $15.00 cash for whole track season (or $10.00 before Christmas and $10.00 after), we encourage you to pay the $15.00 on the first track meet as it is cheaper for you and a lot easier for us.
Track Volunteers Required
Track Racing doesn’t happen without the hard work of many. We currently have a very passionate group of volunteers, lead by Ian Gray that make track racing possible.
For the 2015/16 track season we want to recruit and train up more volunteers, so that we can roster the roles around each week so that not the same people are running track each week. If you are new to a role, as you learn we will have you working with an experienced person, until you are familiar with the task.
There are many roles that need to be filled including:
- Judges
- Time keepers
- Starter
- Result recorders
- Handicapping
- 1st Aid
- Gate control/ calling the next race up
- Report writing- please let us know if you are interested in writing a report about the racing to be posted on the BM web site after each meet. A roster will be made so that the task is shared around
If you are willing to help out this season, please let Kate Stewart know ( k8.stewart@hotmail.com ) . After we have a list of volunteers we can share the jobs around and post on the website each week with who is helping out.
The more volunteers we have, the easier and safer it is for everyone!
