The full process is explained here: Startsheet Publication (🔗). This FAQ covers the final step required after the start list has been built.
Key Definitions
Start List - the table listing rider names, numbers and start times. Completed directly via an editable table on the site or uploaded from a spreadsheet.
Start Sheet - a Word or PDF document containing your start list and race details. It may also contain club logos, information about prizes, organiser and timekeeper details etc.
The Start Sheet is published only when the organiser clicks the Publish Start Sheet button. While there are still outstanding actions, the button will be red and inactive, as shown below. These will be listed in red on the right. For this example, the Start Sheet document must be uploaded, and the Start List contains errors.
The Publish Start Sheet button will turn green when all required actions have been completed. The organiser must then click the button to complete the process. This will email all riders, providing a link to the start list, with the start sheet attached. You will be given the option to add a message before sending.
Footnote - This works differently for club events with on-the-line entries. Please see finalising club event start list (🔗)
