Hi Chris
Happy new year. I have been a time keeper before at the start of TT and I am free to timekeep/marshal on Sat 18th April, and wed 15th July if that helps. Possibly 7th August if not away.

Nice one Simon I'll put you down for the two you can definitely do then.

Chris

I'll do both days at K20/5 (noting we need a second person on that course) for starters.

Quick qeuery though - there seems to be contradictory dates betwen this thread, the posted list here : http://www.beaconrcc.org.uk/message_boa ... php?t=6805 & the announcement here : http://www.beaconrcc.org.uk/club_races/ ... index.html



Rich

Happy to help but can't commit to any one until a couple of days before due to the random nature work/family.

Well spotted Rich. Yes its the calendar on the main website that is wrong. Ill sort it. the dates on the message board are the right ones.

So Simon the 18th of April date was an error. The date for that event is actually the 11th of April. Can you still do this one?

I can do the first two on 21/3 and 28/3.

Cool thanks Andy

Yes I can do 11th April

We are a bit short of timekeepers.

It's easy enough to do and quite good fun so come on guys.

In particular the 9 mile events are usually very popular and if more than 20 people turn up its not possible to run the event without 2 timekeepers.

Anyone not sure what is involved, join me on 21/3 or 28/3 and I'll show you.

Any more offers for timekeeping.

As you can see from the list we are struggling a bit. Some of these events need more than one timekeeper. Namely the 9 mile events. If more than 20 people turn up its not possible to do the event without two timekeepers. In two of last years 9 mile events we had over 30 riders.

Also although I'm more than happy to time keep several events Id quite like to ride some......

Its not hard to do I am happy to advise if anybody is interested but a bit worried about doing it.

Chris, I try to keep midweek evening commitments to the minimum, because I often need to work in the evenings and can't easily predict in advance whether that will be the case or not.

However, feel free to call me and check my availability in the run-up to any event that hasn't got enough timekeepers.

Chris.
Will be able to help at most TTs but a bit difficult to make a definite commitment this far in advance. However you can always contact me, and I can let you know nearer the dates.

Thanks Bob and George.

Note I've had to move the 10 on the 6th May due to a course clash. It's now on the K34/10D.

I'm not able to be at the 9s on the 20th and 27th May. So as this course needs 2 timekeepers I need volunteers.
