RIDER CONDUCT

Please review the technical guide for important rules for all racers in Central Park. In particular: never ride on the walking paths in Central Park, never ride backwards on the Park Drives and never enter the recreation lane. Any violations of these rules will result in an immediate DQ and possible ban from racing in Central Park.

After the first Club Series race three riders were reported by NYC Parks for riding backward on the Central Park loop and/or riding on walking paths and after the third Club Series race three marshals were reported riding backward on the Central Park loop. This conduct threatens the existence of our races and will be subject to an immediate DQ and possible suspension.

MArshals

NYC Parks strictly enforces our marshal requirements. Races cannot start until 15 minutes AFTER all marshals are at their assigned posts. If marshals arrive late, do not show or are not at their precise assigned post we may lose our race permits. Please refer to the Marshaling Instructions and Marshaling Policy for addition information.
