| POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
Secondary Navigation
Means (Signage)
In addition to our maps and cue sheets, we will also use additional navigational
means including painted road marks, orange ribbons, chalk on the ground,
or additional signage as secondary aids to help you follow the route. All
signage is considered secondary and supplemental because we
cannot keep their availability and accuracy completely within our control.
They are subject to degradation from such external factors such as getting
worn out by traffic running over it on busy streets, rain, wind, road construction,
vandals, etc.
Despite this, we really do a fantastic job marking all the
turns on the route, literally putting down thousands of additional pieces
of signage along our routes every year. It is our intent to make
our signage big, bright, obvious, and intuitively simple for you to be
able to
easily
follow
but still
discreet enough to not
stand out to any of the communities we pass through. We also
verify that all the signage is in place and accurate as we scout the
route during the event itself and on the rare occasion that a piece
of signage is missing on the road, once notified of the situation we
always come out and fix the problem immediately. If for any reason
you think we may have missed a piece of signage on the routes please
contact us and let us know. All staff members will carry orange paint
and ribbons with them and are authorized to fix signage problems.
Secondary navigation
means will only be used on our routes on the road. They will not be used
on in town routes within our stopping towns. Please
note that we may not use all possible secondary navigational means for
every event.  Click
