With the arrowed course will the arrows be non reversible ie printed on one side only and on a stake into the ground is one way or have the words LEFT or RIGHT or AMTRA that should not be upside down. The last arrowed ride Tony Kirby did was ruined by insurgents turning arrows and Tony was out till 3pm rounding up the lost riders. You guys probably have it covered already.

The Arrows are reversible,I've done quite a few enduro's, the only time we had a problem was with a farmer,when we had a meeting at Warrenbayne, it seemed that he didn't like ppl riding passed his property, he didn't turn the Arrows the wrong way, he just pulled them down at the start of the loop,the start was delayed by 2 hours, other then that never had a problem.
I wish you didn't bring that up Ken, now we've got another thing to worry about.

Falling off doesn't hurt, it's the sudden stop that does the damage.

There is one unhappy farmer that we know about at Abbeyard and better to bring it up now me thinks. The easiest way is to mark the arrow with letters to back up the direction ie LEFT, RIGHT, SO etc and the punters have to know the letters displayed should not be upside down or turned, if they are they should wait for sweeps to confirm direction. Sweeps should have maps and spare arrows/staples etc.
Hope this helps.

That's a good idea Ken, I'm not the one doing the arrowing, so I guess it's up to the ppl that are.

Can someone tell me if the DSE has ever tested bikes with a Db meter over the HCR weekend?
I hope not my CRF250 is extremely loud.

Will there be enough room at Abbeyard for my F350 and 28ft fifth wheeler?
Is it asking too much if I could fill my inflatable spa off the tank water?
