Number pinning 101

I have stumbled across some undisputable proof that race promoters aren't just picking on racers about pinning on numbers properly. Every race there are racers who do not get a placing, and most times it's because officials could not determine the number on your back. I've been "victim" of a non-placing several times, but one never knows the true reason why since poor pinning isn't the reason 100% of the time.

However, we as racers can (should) do our part to make the process easier. Especially this weekend at the TN State Championships! If you want to max out those TBRA points I suggest getting this simple thing done correctly.

Check out this link from TXBRA, The Texas Bicyle Racing Association. There are quite a few picturs with great examples of good and bad.
