Umpires are also strongly encouraged to read the Bank Riding briefing slides (below).


Bank Riding

Bankriders of racing crews must have been briefed within the last 18 months about their legal responsibilities when participating in the event. Briefed bankriders should come to racedesk to sign out a bib before following their crew and then return the bib to racedesk when finished.

A general bankrider briefing was run via Teams on Saturday 26-Feb at 10am. On-the-day briefings will occur at racedesk at 10:45am each day of Bumps and at another point in the afternoon which will be announced shortly.

The briefing is based on this presentation .

All bank riders must have been to a bank rider briefing in the previous 18 months. Having taken the bankrider e-learning for Summer Torpids 2021 last year is considered equivalent to attending a briefing. If in doubt, please contact the race secretary.
