Due to a general lack of pre-race training, I decided it was probably best if I gave this year's event a miss. Since the family had already arranged accomodation for the weekend, I thought it might be my turn to give something back to the sport, so I volunteered my services to AROC.

After a hectic Saturday afternoon on the rego desk (made even more hectic by the near gale force winds!), I was allocated my marshall station for Sunday's event. No detailed briefing - the riders were joining a road; just warn drivers. Everything else was pretty much going to be winging it.
