Support Crews
Here are a few tips for those riders who are fortunate to have a support crew at this year’s Trans Karoo:
Support teams may not drive on the event routes, please make sure that they have the map indicating the route they must follow to get to each of the support points.
Supporters must make sure they get to each of the support points with enough time to park and set themselves up for your arrival.
Study at each of the support points and arrange where you are going to meet each other, making sure that you don’t get in the way of other riders or the check point crew.
Riders must first stop and get checked off before they go to their supporters.
Check points
The 2014 Trans Karoo includes 4 check points, all of which participants must stop at. The check points allow us to keep track of where the riders are and also provide points for refreshment, nutrition and assistance if it is required. Before a rider leaves any given check point they must make sure that they get a sticker on their number board so that we know you have been through each one.
