Help needed - Open 10

Postby Phil H » Thu Aug 07, 2014 8:46 pm

In case you missed my last thrilling email.

We need help for the Open 10 mile TT on August 30th. It's a Saturday and it's on the North Holmwood course in the afternoon - so handy for being there on the way back from the club run.

HQ is St. John’s CofE Community School, Goodwyns Road, Dorking, Surrey RH4 2LR.

Help is needed for

2 x Pushers
5 x Marshalls
1 x turn checker
2 x finish line spotters
3 x refreshments
1 x signing on

Nothing too difficult and being a TT, you do not interact with traffic.

Either reply, PM of mail to timetrials@addiscombe.org if you can help.

Refreshments. I'll see if we can put on a good spread of home-made cakes like at the 25.

Phil,

I think I put my name down as a marshall in a PM to you a few months ago?

Still short of a few. Nice easy one this one. Don't be on that List of Shame at the end of the year.

Just received your email Phil. Excuse language but it's a ****ing disgrace that you still need 3 people for this out of a club with so many purportedly "club members".

Feel free to scratch my entry and put me down to help if you still need people later in the week, just let me know and I'll do whatever you are still short of.

Phil,
You can count with Tina and I if people are still needed and IF non-experience is required. We have never done anything like this.
What can we do?

Thanks very much Jorge. With you and Tina on board, we're now fully staffed.

You don't need experience, I will explain stuff before the start. Also if you look up in the right hand corner of this page, there's a link called "Marshalling Info" which explains what it's all about. For a TT like this one, it's really straightforward.

Happy to help with this if you need any more helpers. Will do pretty much anything. Will be riding down after morning ride so can marshal along course if required.

Great work today people (good lord - manager-speak). Nice to get another event out of the way without incidents, accidents, hint or allegations. Great performance from our riders too and a few novices were in there. Great cakes and tea despite the team working in less than ideal conditions.
