You are probably thinking that tonights racing is looking doubtful. Well, the weather forecast isn’t good, and it’s currently raining. We are planning to make a call by 3pm today. Stay tuned to the website/social media channels.
Fridays racing, alas, is also looking doubtful. We are SEVERELY lacking in volunteers for marshalling.
IF THE VOLUNTEER ROLES CANNOT BE FILLED, THE RACES WILL BE CANCELLED
It is worth reiterating again. SCRL IS NOT A CYCLE CLUB WITH “MEMBERS” TO DRAW UPON. The people who race need to put their hand up and provide the cover that they themselves need for their own races to go ahead. Everyone should help each other out. The committee spend enough time organising the events, they cannot be expected to provide cover for all of the roles. Nor can the same volunteers be expected to provide the cover over and over again.
There are a few cycle clubs with three or four riders in the races, some even per race. If each of those took it in turns to provide cover for the races they were not riding in, this would be easily achievable. If you like we could even let you put up some banners advertising the fact to promote your club as well.
Please email volunteering@scrl.co.uk if you can fill a role.
