Good Morning.
The Australian Footbike Association
Inc (AFA), have announced their 2019 Racing calendar. It would be great to get as many Footbikers
there as possible. Remember you need to be a Member of the AFA to race, but there will be novice racing
available for non-members over the shorter individual time-trial distances.
Registered AFA
members also earn points towards their Australian ranking, and all these events gain points, so that's
a great reason to register as a member.
The times indicated on the calendar are the start
time of the first race, so please be there at least an hour beforehand to make sure that your registration
is correct, that you attend the race briefing (a requirement) and you have plenty of time to warm up.
Keep an eye on the events and rules tabs of footbike.com.au to make sure you understand the rules,
and you can find out any other information that you may require.
There is also a membership
application form in the membership area, and there will be an event registration form for each race day
online as well. So get training now, and we look forward to seeing you at the next event.
