Restructure the general rules in 3B (Closed for comments)
Comments about this discussion:
Started
After the last Rulebook Committee revised the structure of the Track chapter quite fundamentally, I wondered whether it wouldn't be more clear to also revise the structure of the Road Race chapter.
One thing that I find very confusing in the current Road Racing chapter, for example, is which official disciplines there are in the field of Road Races. I also find the assignment of some sub-chapters not particularly logical.
The structure I had in mind would be something like this:
3B.1 General Road Racing Rules
3B.1.1 Safety
3B.1.2 Unicycles
3B.1.3 Rider Identification
3B.1.4 Riders Must Be Ready
3B.1.5 Protests
3B.2 Road Racing Disciplines
3B.2.1 Fixed Distance Races
3B.2.1.1 10 km
3B.2.1.2 Marathon
3B.2.1.3 100 km
3B.2.2 Free Distance Races
3B.2.3 Criterium
3B.2.4 Time Trials
3B.3 Racing Rules
3B.3.1 The Start
3B.3.1.1 False Start
3B.3.2 The Race
3B.3.2.1 Illegal Riding
3B.3.2.2 Passing
3B.3.2.3 Dismounts
3B.3.2.4 Repair, Change, or Replace a (Broken) Unicycle
3B.3.3 The Finish
With the exception of section 3B.2 Road Racing Disciplines, everything could be taken over from the existing rules for now - this proposal should therefore not contain any changes to the content, but should only adapt the structure of the existing rules.
