Does anyone know, do we have to have our own chip for this event. I have so many chips I get confused. If anyone can send a photo of what the chip looks like if needed, Kind regards all. To Those who may know the answer, if we already have one of these new fangled boards that look super-pro, from say Ride Joburg or similar, do we still use those or are we getting new boards again for life/race/next buy-out?

Milosh Posted March 4 Share So the rolling start i.e: when you cross the line is gone, replaced by a gun start for the group. This means everyone wants to be in the front of the group and save the minute(s) it takes to cross the line from the back of the group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This means everyone wants to be in the front of the group and save the minute(s) it takes to cross the line from the back of the group. If there wasn't a pinch point getting onto Nelson Mandela boulevard 1km from the start, resulting in 80% of the group chasing hard to get back on by Hospital Bend, then this wouldn't matter.. then you could just sit anywhere in the group from the start. But as it is, it is much more favourable to be near the front of the group from the gun. It's not about the timing across the mat.

Brand new one at the Expo. Previous ones were TEMPORARY. Many of us have 3 of these temporary boards from recent races. Must get the new and "final" one at the Expo DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
