Competitors are reminded that: During the reconnaissance period, care and courtesy are paramount on all stages. Extra care is required at this time of year when a high volume of agricultural and tourist traffic can be expected. Infringement of Reconnaissance Regulations carries a severe penalty. Due to the high level of complaints from residents during the reconnaissance in previous years the Organisers are operating a ZERO TOLERANCE policy. Any reported infringement of SR Article 9 may incur a penalty. Any change of reconnaissance vehicle or occupants thereof must be submitted to the organisers for approval and registration prior to the reconnaissance being continued.
