Welcome! Welcome from the Race Director I would like to welcome and introduce you to the Under 17 Race in the 2016 Battle on the Border Racing Tour. The Battle is using similar courses to last year with 60km of open road racing plus a 12km Scody Individual Time Trial and the existing snappy Stan Brims Criterium. We know the Under 17 division will be a strong field again in 2016 and we are very proud to continue to provide Junior tour racing at the Battle. Our focus remains on safety first. There is an expected 10% increase in road safety costs for 2016 and this will impact_the overall prize pool._ Due to the forecast heavy wet weather on the two road race days, the rolling road closure mechanism will not be in place following safety consultations with Police. The reduced visibility, poor lighting, slippery roads, tree litter and fast downhill descents are additional risks.
Riders must stay on the left hand side at all times and use only the left side of all roundabouts. (Particularly for the final approach to finish into Salt Village do not use the right hand lane.) Road and weather conditions will dictate if the manner of racing will be altered on the day and may include reduced courses, race neutralisation, restricted road use, delayed races, postponed or cancelled races. Safety is the first priority. We are very pleased to have Hertz car and truck rental on board which will assist teams with transport. We are also thrilled to have Scody and Cricks Subaru supporting the event and the cycling community. Finally, please do not litter during this event. Ride safe, enjoy yourselves and I look forward to meeting you at the Battle soon.

This Rider Guide is continually updated and can not be printed.
Welcome! Welcome from the NSW Government Battle on the Border has become a key event on the annual cycling calendar, helping to cement the Tweed’s reputation as a leading cycling destination and the NSW Government is proud to support this event through our tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW.
On behalf of the NSW Government, I welcome all visitors to the Tweed region for the 2016 Battle on the Border – a combination of fierce competitive racing and social cycling events. Now in its eighth year, Battle on the Border will once again have something for everyone, from competitive cyclists to beginners keen for a weekend pedal, with courses ranging from 50km to 150km.
Regional events have the capacity to showcase the very best of our State’s destinations and Battle on the Border will highlight the beautiful natural environment while providing a significant boost to the local visitor economy. I encourage visitors to take some time to experience everything the wonderful NSW North Coast region has to offer – from the beautiful beaches, national parks to the great shopping, restaurants and beachfront accommodation. I wish all attendees an enjoyable weekend and all competitors the very best of luck over the next few days. Minister for Trade, Tourism and Major Events Minister for Sport Stuart Ayres MP

Duty of Care (1) Rider Agreement
Acceptance of the following is required for participation. Staying Safe The Battle on the Border is conducted with the consent of the New South Wales Police and the Tweed Shire Council on race courses that offer challenges for riders and require previous race craft skills. Race courses are on suburban roads and country laneways, some with potholes, crumbling edges, no centre lines, blind corners, narrow bridges, steep hills, farmers, cows, tractors, and very rough surfaces - all which remain constant threats to inattentive riders. We urge you to protect yourself: • Keep your line straight and don’t swerve; • Eyes up and look ahead; • Communicate loudly hazards to all riders; • Stay left, especially when descending; • Don’t ride across centre lines; • Every effort has been made to ensure your safety while in the race protected enclosure, but once outside the enclosure you must obey traffic laws. (stay left and two abreast) Bike racing is a high risk activity and each rider must know the course, and protect themselves. The Battle on the Border provides a traditional ‘country road’ racing opportunity. Riders who race recklessly will be disqualified immediately. We urge you to place safety first and the podium last. Mark Duggan Statement In 2014 Masters B rider Mark Duggan from Newcastle suffered significant injuries and for future years the Battle promotes the Mark Duggan Statement which means – we look after our mates. All riders are urged in good conscience to: stop and assist, stop and make a mobile call, and stop and offer first aid for any fellow rider who has been injured or lost. The rider’s group time will be provided with no penalties for those who help their mates (male or female). 6

•
If you observe an accident, collision, or anything of concern during the race, report it promptly to the race director or emergency control centre (ECC) following your race. If you are involved in an incident or are picked up by the sweep car during your race, contact the emergency control centre (ECC) as soon as possible to debrief. The emergency control centre (ECC) will be tracking convoys, rider withdrawals/injuries and placement of medical resources to support racing. They will also perform the reconciliation for each race and will be calling you if you have not crossed the finish line.
Being Part of the Community It is a privilege for the Battle on the Border participants to have been welcomed to the Tweed Shire and be supported so well by its wonderful communities. We ask you to respect the community: don’t park on footpaths or across driveways, don’t drop empty food packets when riding, don’t throw water bottles into the bush, don’t ignore shop keeper’s requests to not ride on footpaths or through shopping centres, and don’t lean bikes on shop windows. We ask you to use the provided toilets, take your rubbish home, and treat residents with respect. Causing anger unnecessarily with the local community may transfer to the road and cause harm to all involved. We urge you to think before acting, so we can all return to the Tweed Shire for the next Battle.
Duty of Care (2) Rider Agreement (Cont.)
Acceptance of the following is required for participation. Rules and Regulations 1. The New South Wales Laws of the Road apply and the Regulations of Cycling Queensland and Cycling Australia; 2. Officials will be treated with respect; 3. To be bound by the Code of Conduct; 4. To not place at risk another rider, an official, or the public.
Race Organiser Agreement Rolling Road Closure The News South Wales Police will provide where possible a rolling road closure and they reserve the right to cancel the rolling road closure at any stage during the race. Most times Police become frustrated by riders clearly doing high risk racing and we ask all riders to stay on the left and avoid crossing the centre line. Police will issue fines for reckless endangerment and/or cancel races. The local Tweed-Byron Police command has been very supportive of the Battle for eight years, and cycling in general, and we urge all riders to work with Police during the race.
Rolling Road Closure is used when confirmed by the race director. A rolling road closure only provides a secure enclosure when directly under control of the Police. Riders outside of the convoy are at their own risk and MUST stay left. Smaller pelotons will not have a rolling road closure. Protect yourself at all times – if Police are directly in front of you DO NOT cross the centre line. Commissaires Cycling Australia commissaires from Queensland and New South Wales support the Battle and we ask that you treat all officials with the highest level of respect. Should an issue arise, you are welcome to approach the Chief Commissaire and discuss the matter. Officials/Volunteers The Battle requires the assistance of many local community based volunteer organisations. Each division’s race convoy needs the assistance of volunteer drivers and scribes who are most times the friends and partners of the riders. This is great way to see the race up front.

Race Tour Information (1) The Battle: The Battle on the Border was created as a long term, sustainable open road tour race. Operating in New South Wales, it is obliged to follow the strict RMS Cycle User Guidelines which are expensive to comply with. In 2016 it is expected the cost for Police, traffic control, etc, will be nearly $100,000. Road safety and our rider’s well-being is the first priority - the entry fee is expensive but these are increasing costs that have to be funded. The Battle is about the racing experience, the personal challenge on open roads and big hills - it is not about the prize money.
Sign On – Each rider is required to sign on at Registration before each and every stage race beside their assigned race number. A Race Number is assigned within a set range for your division. The number is to be worn as centre of the back and on the left-hand side of your jersey; and the sticker affixed to the seat post. Lost numbers can be replaced at Registration. (we provide 2 jersey numbers, 1 post number, 10 pins, 2 cable ties and 4 spare wheel sheets).
Feeding is only permitted in the nominated feed zones which are supervised by a commissaire. Littering is a big problem amongst cyclists - some of whom selfishly throw their supplement packets, water bottles along the course, and cause unrest with local farmers and the community at large. Please do not litter or you will be asked to go home. The community is hypersensitive to cyclists’ littering. Warm Up Circuits – will be shown on the site plans. Do not warm up on public roads or you will be fined by the police. Supporters’ Parking – Please do not park on the race course, near finish lines, in a resident’s driveway, or on footpaths. Time Limit – Races will have a time limit imposed and enforced by the Chief Commissaire. See over. Neutral Race Control applies normally at the beginning of some races when riders are not to proceed past the red flag. Sprint Zone – often have a yellow flag with a white flag on the sprint line.
Timing Transponders are to be affixed to the frame as shown above and not removed unless a new bike is used. The correct mounting of the transponder is important for an accurate result. Before mounting check you have the correct transponder number. The transponder must be securely mounted as low as possible on the fork 40 to 45cm above the ground, and if lost the replacement fee is $100. Spare wheels – Each rider is required to present a spare wheel for each race. The wheels must be labelled with name and number. Wheels when exchanged during the race must be noted by the spare vehicle crew - please ensure they record your name and number before exchanging. Wheels cannot be removed from the pits without proof of ownership.
10
Black & White Flag – signifies the finish line. Feed Zones – are normally marked with a blue flag. Anti Doping – Testing may be conducted at this event, and it is the responsibility of the rider to ensure they are not required for testing prior to their departure after a race. Doping control facilities will be located close to the finish line each day, if in operation. Electronic Timing – The timing system produces live results which are only provisional until signed by the Chief Commissaire and posted to the noticeboard. Concerns and queries should only be address to the Chief Commissaire please.

Scody Time Trial Overview Scody Individual Time Trial Sunday 5th June 2016
The Scody Individual Time Trial will be held on an extended 12.22km course that has less impact on the farming community and hopefully will see less tractors and cows. Essentially a flat course, racers move out into the valley on Numinbah Valley Road with gradual climbs that lead into sharp foothills that cut across the valley to the turn point near the river. Obviously, the enjoyment of the hills is played out again, but in reverse.
Finally, racers make a sharp right turn onto Queensland Road and push hard with a long fast straight stretch to the finish line.
The finish will be in front of the home crowd at the Murwillumbah Showground. We thank the Historical Show Society for once again supporting the Battle with their great facilities at the Showground.

Stan Brims Criterium Overview Murwillumbah Criterium Sunday 5th June 2016
The Stan Brims Criterium course remains the same as last year and is considered a good circuit with tight and unusual corners, and a fast descent. From the start you have a series of right then left-hand turns to upset the peloton before a sharp right-hand uphill climb takes riders to a tight right corner. A long descent takes racers back to the finish line.
A technical course by some standards, larger fields make this an important stage for riders to concentrate and 'hold their line’ - especially on the corners. A number of stretches present opportunities for improving positioning and moving towards the front. Ride safely and keep your line. The pits operate with two gates and are in the centre of the course and at the top of Murwillumbah St.
