OFFICIALS:Officials who are rostered on ride days must arrive early. If this is not possible you must arrange a substitute. In the event that this does not happen, non rostered officials present are expected to perform the duties of the absent official. All officials are expected to make known their availability for duty on our known calendar dates by contacting the event secretary, phone 08 8568 1920 RIDERS CLOTHING: While the minimal safe clothing requirements for recreational riders is less stringent than competition based riders, common sense rules will apply. A helmet and gloves are compulsory. Footwear should be at least ankle height and of a tough construction. Note! absolutely no sand shoes. For very young riders Gum-boots are acceptable. Pants should be full length and of tough material. Shirts should also be full length and eye protection is recommended. Body armour is not compulsory but faster riders are advised to use it.
MEMBERSHIP OBLIGATIONS: Apart from abiding by the AHMC rules, members are expected to not only become involved in the maintenance of their track and facilities but also take part in the decisions effecting their club. The best way to do this is by attending club meetings regularly. It is at these meetings that all issues concerning their club are raised, discussed and acted upon. Without high attendance levels, issues cannot be dealt with effectively. Note! Low attendance simply equals poor facilities, a poor track, an ineffective committee and eventually no AHMC. By taking part in the above members cannot fail to be aware of the problems faced in the running of the club. At the top of that list is the constant shortage of level 2 officials. The reason being that without a level 2 official on duty, no riding can take place at our ride days. To prevent this occurring we strongly suggest all adult members to become level 2 officials as soon as possible after joining. To do this you must contact M.S.A directly (phone 8332 9000) and make a booking at their next available course. It takes only a little of your time and no costs are incurred. While the shortage of officials is no 1 on our list of problems, the filling of committee positions follows closely behind. Usually only 75% of positions are occupied with most of the present committee members having to take on dual roles to fill the remaining positions. It may also seem that members positions within the committee are set in concrete, but this is never the case. Often members currently holding those positions are only too willing to vacate it for other members eager to have a go, though it must be noted that all positions require a high degree of commitment from those that hold them. All members are invited to take on committee positions when they are vacated and take part in the administration of the AHMC. Past experience has shown that if all members fulfill their obligations the clubs workload is shared evenly, the enjoyment for all is greatly increased and the future of the club will be assured. We trust that all members appreciate the need to address the issues outlined in the above and look forward to your help in dealing with them. |  - Copy - Copy.JPG)
