Is the series going to be for 1 bike, 1 rider...or is there anything to stop people entering as a team?

So if "Piston Broke Racing" got a bike together with, let's suppose, 4 riders, is there any reason why those folks couldn't just do a couple of races each?

Apart from the fact that those riders wouldn't get the experience of a full series and would remain the greenest of novices, and would probably stand naff all chance of any racing glory, is there anything to stop people doing this if they just want a taste of racing?

Another thought occurs, if sharing bikes was on the cards, how about if like minded people from each DSC region bought, prepared and raced a bike. Maybe you could have a team championship for each region, with a different person on the bike for each race? So, BHC crew against the Essex Boys? Berks Oxon and so on. It would also spread the riding talent around so that people with existing race experience would still have complete novices in the team?

Just a thought, but it would give each region someone to cheer and organise rideouts too.
