MECHANICAL ASSISTANCE
Paul
Wagstaff, a former mechanic for the Shimano race team, will be on-site
to look after all your mechanical needs during the race. This
will be a basic service, just to get you back on the road again.
The service will only be available in the athlete village.
If a cyclist has a mechanic problem out on the race course, they
must return to the athlete village under their own steam.
If the cyclist returns before making the bike turn-around point,
they must start this lap again from the village after their bike
is repaired.
The mechanic will have very minimal spare parts. Any part
taken from the mechanic must be paid for in full either by the cyclist
or their support team before they continue with the race.
MEDICAL
COVER
|
Xtreme
Medics will be the the medal cover for the event, located inside
the athlete village who are Specialist Medical and Rescue Services
experts.
Extreme Medics combine the skills of extreme sports with specialist
medical training to provide medical cover where the risk of
injury is high and where the location is remote or environmentally
hostile.
Their clinical staff are always State registered health professionals,
mostly paramedics with remote area medicine and extreme sports
experience and they are supported by specialist rescue technicians
where required.
Their staff, vehicles and equipment mean they can provide advanced
life support and primary care in all environments no matter
how harsh. |
MASSAGE
Tim
Pepper from Burntwood Osteopath Clinic will be providing free sports
massage for all athletes on the bike and run stages. Pre race massage
can be booked with Tim by telephoning 01543 684980. Tim's clinic
is located only 5 miles from The Friary.
On-Site Catering
 |
KK
Catering wil be on-site 24/7 throughout the event selling hot
and cold drinks, baguettes, baked potatoes, sausage, bacon and
egg sandwiches etc. |
SUPPORT
& SUPPORT CREWS
Although it is highly recommended that every athlete brings at least
one support crew member, it is not a condition of entry. Consideration
should be given to bring at least 2 support crew members to allow
one member to sleep while the other supports.

The athlete village (at the beginning/end of every bike & run
lap), will contain portable loos and a feed station. A marquee
will be located within the village that will contain the athlete's
event’s bag and seating for the athletes to replenish.
The athletes will pass the support crew camping area on both the
bike and run courses at the same point. This is the only point
that the athlete is allowed to leave the course and must do so after
informing an official. The athlete will then be able to eat,
drink, sleep or change with their support crew if required.
The athlete must then inform an official when he/she wishes to continue.
In the interest of safety, an athlete whilst competing will either
be on the race course or in the support crew area having informed
an official. An athlete leaving these two areas will be observed
as a withdrawal from the race.
Athletes without support crews may pitch a tent in the support crew
area if they wish. However any valuables left unattended will
be at the athlete's risk of loss. Support crew vehicles will
not be allowed to drive on the bike course during the event.
This is for the safety of the athletes. Vehicles will not
be permitted onto the camping area. Please note the entrance
to the athlete village from Eastern Avenue is also the bike route.
Campervans may use the support crew area however they will be unable
to drive out of the village until after the last athlete has completed
the bike course. Campervans must be in position before
04:00hrs
on Saturday 7th August. Alternatively campervans may park
with the remainder of the athlete's / supporter's vehicles approximately
300m from the athlete village in the leisure centre car park.
CAMPING
THERE WILL BE NO CAMPING IN THE EVENT
LOCATION ON THE EVENING OF FRIDAY 8th August 2010. Tents can
be erected on the Friday but no sleeping / cooking / use of toilet facilities
are allowed.

There is an area for support crews to erect a tent or gazebo which
overlooks both the bike and run turnaround points. Care must
be taken not to damage the field by cooking or tents and support
crews are responsible for taking all their own rubbish away with
them from the site after the event. A bin liner will be provided
in the Race bag for athletes to collect at registration.
They may remain there until 08:00hrs on Monday 9th
August. Remember that this is not a campsite. The school
have been kind enough to allow support crews to pitch a tent to
help supporters in inclement weather and for resting and cooking.
You will need to bring your own bottled water. Whilst the
leisure centre is closed, support crews will only have access to
3 x Portable loos.
Pacing from support crews will not be tolerated. Crews must
NOT join the athletes at any stage during the bike stage.
Discretion will be used during the run stage but supporters must
first speak with the race organiser. Supporters will run no more
than 1 lap in every 5 with the athletes.
