    Re: [RC] Finish lines and criteria - Truman Prevatt


    If the finish is a vet control point - which is established in 6.2.1 (see Randy's post) - then the 30 minute pulse applies. This type of confusion can happen when you tinker with rules instead of rewriting them for consistency. Probably needs some work. I would consider the interpretation of the rules committee to be the "law of the land" unless over ridden by the BOD, or the protest committee if a protest were filed.

    I don't agree. That's like saying if one Circuit Court judge makes a ruling on some point of law, that is the Law of the Land. The final arbiter of our rules in AERC is the Board of Directors.

    I just looked at the *entire* Rule 6 in context, and 6.2.1.1 has
    serious problems.  It is in the wrong place, for one thing.  Whereas
    6. deals with the overall requirements for completing a ride, and
    includes "f.  passing vet check requirements" and "i. meeting criteria
    at post-finish-line check" (note these are two distinct line items),
    6.2 deals in particular with the post-finish-line check.  Nothing else
    in 6.2 applies to any other check.  So, putting a rule applying to vet
    checks *during the ride* under 6.2 was putting it in the wrong place,
    guaranteed to cause confusion.  It belongs under 6.1.  IMO it also
    needs to be re-written to make it clear to everyone that the
    post-finish-line check is a different check where 60 minutes is
    allowed.
