To OBRA members

I hate that we have to do this every year, but here goes

The rules read:
8. - NUMBERS
8.1 - Shall either be the numbers provided with OBRA membership for the
current year or numbers provided by the race organizer. Numbers from other
races or OBRA numbers not from the current year may not be used. Penalty or
disqualification is at the discretion of the Race Official.
8.2 - Numbers will be block figures and will be easily read at a distance.
They will be black figures on a white background. Riders will place their
numbers according to the instructions of the officials and/or race
organizer..
8.3 - No rider shall cut, fold, mutilate, trim or apply stickers to the race
number, nor shall they sell, trade or give the issued number to another
individual. Penalty or disqualification is at the discretion of the Race
Official.
8.4 - Unreadable numbers may not be placed.

>From this point on if I cannot see your number, you will not be placed
If your number is on incorrectly and only partially visible to the camera,
you will not be placed
If your number comes unpinned, you will not be placed
If you try to pull up you vest and only 1 number shows, you will not be
placed
If your number is under a rain jacket or vest and is not visible, you will
not be placed
If you pinned it on the wrong side, you will not be placed
If you handwrite your number and it cannot be read by the camera, you will
not be placed.

If you have any doubts about your number placement stop an official and ask.
