Rules Update

It has just been brought to my attention that I have not stricken every reference to rolling exchanges from the rules.
1. You may not ever EVER do a rolling exchange at night. NEVER.
2. As the retiring racer may not EVER ride backwards on the route, it’s actually very difficult to stage a rolling exchange during the day either.

We’ve come to find that stationary or stopped exchanges function very well, are safe and are fair. So while you may end up doing a slight variation on a rolling exchange during the day, the easiest way to think of team racing exchanges during RAO is with a stopped vehicle, no backward riding on the route, no circling. All forward motion.
Please be aware of this – we’ll go over it again at the meeting. And we’re sticking to our guns. You won’t save time doing rolling exchanges. Really.
