OK, here is the final draft for comment before it is submitted into the formal review process. Different file but same place - see regs.paudax.com for details.
Its [sic] formatted as a single resolution with four parts to be voted on seperately [sic], Part 1 being the main body of the regulations plus three points worthy of individual consideration.
As usual, all feedback welcome!
As a newbie among the great and good who've commented, here are my minutia.
P6. “Ordre” not “Order”
P7. 1.2 “General Meeting” Capitalise G and M for consistency across the Regs.
P9. 8.5 DIY Permanent Comment: Oxymoron. Example of history seeming to be more important than clarity for the coming decade.
8.8 Route Type Comment: Only 51% metalled/paved surface would feel very ‘off-road’ (imo). How about an 80% threshold? What is the origin of the 50% quoted?
P10. 9.3 Use of words ‘may not’ are a weak way of conveying prohibition. ?”must not”? Penalty is neither brevet validated nor awarded and also 11.5.9 applies. Cf 11.5.2
11.5.9 Amend relevant text to “an event official’s instruction”
Appx 1 Line 2 Delete “.”
2.2 Why not similar text on planning/registering route in Arrows/Trails section?
4.3 No comma after i.e.
Appx 2 Opening text - slight rewording recommended (and then reflected in Para 1)
From “An extended event is a DIY Permanent which combines with a Calendar and Permanent Brevets recognised for Audax UK awards so that the overall ride may be recognised as a higher category event for Audax UK Award purposes.”
To “An extended event is a DIY Permanent combined with a Calendar or Permanent Brevet (itself recognised for Audax UK awards) so that the overall ride may be recognised as a longer Brevet Distance Category event for Audax UK Award purposes.”
Appx3 Line 2 “. . .completing a series . . .” “different”? not necessarily: could be all 200 BRs for example. Delete “different”
5. Order Ordre??
Page 21 of 22 – Table at end
Add “Advisory” to BR(AUK) BRM(ACP) row and RM(LRM) row in column 5. I assume that there is no intent to impose mandatory routes on BRM or LRMs ridden in UK. Edit: I see you addressed @grams point on this earlier.
@grams "The event type summary table seems to define all BRMs as mandatory route."
OP: "Well, as far as ACP is concerned they are
. The summary table referenced is there for general guidance only and does not form part of the AUK regulations."
Hope this is useful.
