PIT JUDGES NEEDED FOR TANDEM RACE

The 2012 Tandem Race is a fun event every year, and we need your help to be a PIT JUDGE!!
Pit Judges for the Tandem Race which will be held on Saturday, April 14th..  Pit Judge Volunteers are asked to arrive by 10:30am so we can complete introductions and review the rules modifications for this year’s race.

Some changes will be implemented which will make for a very exciting race. The changes are:

  1. A fleet of new Tandem bikes will standardize the gear ratios used by all competing teams
  2. The length of the race has been shortened from 75 to 50 laps which should certainly make for a very competitive race 

 

To help out, contact Dave at dstowe@indstate.edu or by phone at X3915 by April 2, 2012.
