Auckland Bucket numbers

Cheap and easy to fix. Carry a roll of the appropriately colored duct tape and make yourself another number if there is some sort of clash.

It's surprising how many people are 'precious' about their race number and get quite snotty when asked to change it.... even for one race.

I'm willing to have a crack at a national setup but will have to give some thought as to how it will work.
We have triple ups on the same number in the Auckland results, due mainly to mates turning up and having a crack on a mates bike. I don't know everyone well enough to sort out who the usual rider for these bikes are. I've got some ideas but if somebody could PM me the current Hawkes Bay and Wellington numbers it will give me a starting point.

I will sort the Wellington numbers in the weekend and send to you.

Ok. Here is iteration one using the Auckland data from the results thus far this season and the Wellington numbers thread.

Comments?
Up to date info for Wellington and Hawkes bay would help.

Great list Henk. Wish I'd had that a few weeks ago. Anyway, 83 will do, even if it is a bit too close to Pumba (84)!

**Henk** · 29th April 2010, 20:51

At least it's one in front of Pumba.

I've changed 21 and 45. I was going off bike capacity not the results so bikes running in both confused me. I've still left the numbers that haven't turned up this year off and will let somebody else adjudicate those if conflicts arise. Seems a silly to reserve numbers for bikes that haven't been out of the shed in 9 months.
