dependent on the organiser and how much of a stickler
Bit unfair, riding without mudguards particularly when the weather is bad is pretty annoying for other riders too, spraying other people with road crap, going into controls covered in crap and leaving a mess etc.
Some rides due to location will rely on good relationships with the controls they use, people going in caked in mud and leaving a mess all over their nice cafe will not help that.
On a different note how complusory are mudguard when it say in the event notes mudguards are complusory. will I be dammed by the audax gods.
