The actual rules were:
No drafting.
Inevitably a rider may travel at the same pace as another rider. When riding together riders should ride side-by-side.
Riders should recognise that riding in a group, even when not drafting, is significantly easier than riding solo. Riders will be asked to declare the extent of group riding after the event and this data may accompany the final results.
As mentioned in the rules, riders may be asked to declare the extent of group riding and this data may accompany the final results. A final result may not matter to some riders, but please recognise that some riders battle for 33rd place just as hard as a those riders battling for victory. Please allow them to race in the spirit of the event.
