GENERAL RULES AND INFORMATION

3.1 - Official Communications

The primary, official mode of communication between WORN and Riders will be Electronic, via the website and E-mail list.

The WORN Facebook (FB) Page will also get important official announcements. However note Facebook notifications are not always timely, in order, or reliable. Facebook does not always show the most recent information in feeds or on the page for that matter, they use their own algorithms to display, thus the reason we find Facebook an unreliable method for critical updates. So always check the website and Email list first.

Any official announcements or news will be communicated to all media, however the website is the primary official channel.

It is the Rider's responsibility to access one or all of these information sources. We will send out information such as cancellations, postponements, Event location moves, rule changes, location TBA updates, etc. so it is important all Riders monitor the official communication channels.
