Indian Pacific Wheel Race - IndyPac - IPWR

You must comply with the following light and visibility requirements:

Two independent front lights and two independent rear lights must be available for use (i.e. attached to the bicycle or carried). The front light must be white. The rear light must be red;

Independent means that both front lights cannot be powered from the same source. Likewise both rear lights cannot be powered from the same source. The same source can power one front light and one rear light.

One of each front and rear light must be fixed to the bicycle or to a secure accessory (eg a rack or saddle bag);

Between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. (local time) or at times of low visibility at least one front light (of fixed beam - not flashing) and one rear light must be illuminated;

A rear red reflector must be permanently fixed to the bicycle. Note that the rear reflector may be part of a rear light;

A reflective ankle strap on each ankle must be worn at all times;

Strips of reflective tape must be applied to crank arms and seat stays;

An acceptable reflective upper-body garment (most commonly a vest) must be carried and must be worn between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. (local time) or at times low visibility. The reflective garment must be worn over the top of all garments;

Acceptable reflective upper-body garments will use retroreflective materials (reflects light from all angles) which are at least 10 mm wide and placed horizontally across the front and back of the rider, or from the shoulder to the waist or have a reasonable amount of retroreflective material on the front and back.

Reflective piping alone is not considered sufficient.

It is strongly recommended that riders use reflective upper-body garments adhering to Australian Standard AS/NZS 4602.1:2011 class N, which require at least 50 mm wide retroreflective material strips, amongst other requirements.

Further recommendations:
It is strongly recommended that riders wear bright coloured jerseys;

It is strongly recommended that riders use multiple rear lights, mounted at different locations (eg chainstay, helmet and saddle bag) during times of low visibility; and

It is strongly recommended that riders add reflective tape or stickers to their bikes and helmets, and attach reflective straps to their bags to assist with visibility from behind.
