Hi Margie, Is there some sort of Lost and Found section for EMBA riders? I was riding on Saturday, 3rd April from Remo’s Mt Moreland to La Mercy and back and my Specialized glasses fell out of my jersey. Very upset about that. Let me know. Thanks Stuart  stuarts@hc.co.za

Please note that all riders have signed the EMBA/TH agreement. This means that riding times must be strictly adhered to. In addition, it clearly states that riders must ride with an EMBA board.

The only part that ROAG has to play in EMBA is as one [...]
