Committee: TrackSubmitted on 2019-05-20
Status: Passed on June 05, 2019
Background
The text in 2B.6.4. is not internally consistent
Proposal
OLD RULE:
2B.6.4 One Foot Race
Riders may pedal with both feet for the first 5 meters, but must be pedaling with only one foot after crossing the 5m line. The 5m line is judged by looking at the tire contact point. This means that the foot must have left the pedal when the unicycle tire is touching the 5m line on the track. The non-pedaling foot may or may not be braced against the unicycle fork.
NEW RULE:
2B.6.4 One Foot Race
Riders may pedal with both feet for the first 5 meters, but must be pedaling with only one foot after crossing the 5m line. The non-pedalling foot must have left the pedal when the tire contact point crosses the 5m line on the track. The non-pedaling foot may or may not be braced against the unicycle fork.
Body
This proposal stems mainly from Discussion #87 in the Main Committee.
Note that the one italicised sentence under NEW RULE replaces two sentences in the OLD RULE.
