Important email from David Abbott on the rules regarding membership cards:
To Club Secretary’s
Members, club officials and event organisers are being reminded that all riders taking part in any A.I.R.C. activity must produce a valid membership card.
Under rule 4, c, members are not permitted to take part in any activity until they are in possession of their membership card.
If a member is unable to produce their membership card, they are not permitted to take part in the activity.
Any breach of this rule can incur automatic suspension and a fine of up to €1,000.
Club officials and event organisers are also reminded to check the grade of any rider on their membership card before accepting an entry from that competitor.
Please ensure to remind your members of this rule and also any officials, in particular those accepting entries at any A.I.R.C. activity.
Should you have any questions regarding this, please do not hesitate to contact me.
