speak to someone else and you'll get a different answer!

like phil says... what if we get a jobsworth for a scrutineer.

I made some at home last night - computer, printer, laminator, hole punch, bath chain. Sorted!
Just had to get an adult to cut out the circle for me!

I showed the oblong ones to the scrutineer at the Snet ACU day and he said they were f*ing perfect, so there's no bleedin' way I'm going to bother getting another set made up for the hell of it......

Edzachary - if we have any issues, I'll hold him and you can belt him.

Sorted :D

Belt him AFTER i have had my bike scrutineered please........

:lol:

so does this mean I've got no market for my blue-peter type tags :(

The guy at the ACU Test day held up ''oblong'' tags and said they were fine. They were ones with the rubber shroud around them so thats what I got.

I've used an oblong one since 1997.

I've got a new one for this year, and that's oblong too!!

You know how I'm a stickler for rules :lol::lol:

i've been using an oblong one (solid silver infact) for three years with no probs'.

Made 'em yourself - ya tight get!!!!

They're only a few quid. ;)

I spotted the round id disk issue in the rule book. So when I did the ACU-T on Monday I specifically asked Sean if 'Dog' tags were ok even though they weren't round. He said that as long as they have the rubber surround it is fine. They use the very same oblong style dog tag as part of the kit demonstration afterall, so it would be pretty stupid to disallow them in practice.

Hey, I'm on a racers budget now y'know!
After the concerns raised over the shape of them I was just seeing how easy it was to make some.

I've already bought these...



You're buying the drinks on friday I hope! :lol:
