What's this I hear about the Loring Timing Ass'n not reporting the numbers used by racers up there - to Chuck Kalbach? That is -- if you have a number that you got from Chuck - or anyone at the SCTA - and continue to use it but at Loring and not at Bville -- since it isn't reported back to Chuck he assumes that, when the three or whatever years have passed without that number being used at SCTA events - your number goes back into the inventory of available numbers.
In other words - if you want to be sure that your SCTA number stays your number, and if you've only been going to Loring for the past while - you might well contact Chuck Kalbach to let him know you want to keep yours and that you are using it. Chuck: kalbach@snowline.net
Best wishes from #436. I didn't race that number for four or five years ('til 2013) but did let him know each year that I wanted to keep it. It worked fine for me. Check it out for yourself.
