Player Info Section What you need to ride with the Crusty's - A rego'd bike for most rides. The basic safety riding gear including helmet, goggles, gloves, MX boots. It does not hurt to wear roost protection or body armour. Proper MX or enduro pants do protect you should you fall and a MX top helps keep you cool. A lot of riders also wear knee and wrist guards as well as neck braces. A hydro pack - You need to keep drinking while you are riding. A bum bag with some tools, pump and tyre levers, spare plug, cable ties etc. Have some heavy duty tubes fitted to your bike. You will get a lot less punctures. Shove the standard front tube in your back pack that you took out to fit the heavy tube. It will fit both the front and rear wheel. Bark busters save your hands from trees and branches and also protect your levers if you fall. The list can go on and on but at least you have got somewhere to start. Cornerman system. The basic rule is – Ride in a group, stick to the system and someone will always be there to help you if you need it. Unless you are riding in a small group with riders of similar ability and the tracks aren’t too dusty it is best to use a system to avoid the group becoming separated. This can be done in various ways however my favorite has never let me down as long as everyone sticks to the rules. Remember, you don’t want to be laying on the track with an injury wondering if help is going to come just because you ignored the basic rule. The two main players in the system are the lead rider and the sweep. The group follows the lead rider where ever he may take them and he is in charge of placing a rider to show change of direction. He will give the second rider an indication that he wants him to mark the corner. The second rider must stop and should park his bike in the direction the lead has gone. He should also use a hand signal to indicate the change of direction as well. This rider keeps this position until all other riders have passed by and the sweep arrives. The rider then takes off in front of the sweep and follows the group until he is back in second place again. He would then repeat the exercise again as many times as required. Points to note. The lead rider should explain this system to others at a riders meeting. The lead is responsible for indicating when to show a change of direction. The lead should also stop and regroup every few k’s and make sure the sweep arrives before proceeding. If possible, the sweep should wear a bright colored top so he is easily recognized. Never leave your corner unless the sweep arrives. If the sweep doesn’t arrive then there is a problem that he is dealing with. The marker needs to hold his ground until the lead rider returns or the sweep arrives. Once you are at the rear of the field you can overtake slower riders and work your way back through he field. Use caution when overtaking. If you are aware a bike is behind you, you can indicate which side you want him to pass by sticking your boot out on that side. If you want to stop it is good to use a stop hand signal and pull over to the left. Don’t just jam the skids on in the middle of the track or you might end up with another bike on top of you. Remember – this is not just for general safety it also ensures a good day of riding is had by all. There is nothing more frustrating than the group becoming separated and riders going in circles looking for each other. If you don’t find each other you don’t know if other are OK. So if you want to ride with the Crusty Quinns – Please follow the corner man system. What is a points-awarded ride? It's a bit up in the air but I've taken the approach that: * it must be advertised with at least a day's warning on the board, ie, it is a ride available for all CQ'ers. * there must be three or more players. * It can be an organised event not just for CQ'ers.
