After a bunch race has finished you will have 1 complete lap to slow down and will then be expected to leave the track in the back straight, riding down into the safety zone and then back into the riders D. After the time trials please exit the track as soon as possible to enable the next heat to commence.
While the meeting is in progress, you will only be able to leave the track by gate 2 in between races.
All riders will be called into the riders’ pen while the race before is in progress - this will ensure all races are started promptly. If you are not ready, the start will NOT be delayed - you will not start and will be placed last.
