Blue Transponder – $55.00
Race Number – $10.00 Members who have not renewed their membership and have a blue transponder kit could you please return all your kit back at an Northern Cycling race or mail it to Tony at 90 Bayview rd, Yarraville 3013. Non – members who have an red transponder kit, could you please only return back the race number to Tony or at a Northern race. Note the club policy is permanent kits are only to be issued to Northern Cycling members. We also would like to thank our club members who have recently returned their blue transponder kits back to the club and are now getting issued a visitors transponder kit at registration and returning it back after racing which seems to be working well. Once we start the program in May then we will start issuing blue transponder kits to our members who are racing consistently with our club. Members who cannot commit to doing at least ten races at our club in a racing year period, would be better off racing with one of our visitors kit. |
