Other things to note:

Overtaking:

Race etiquette is to warn the rider in front that you are approaching, then giving the rider a clear direction as to what side you are going to pass e.g. "passing on your right" and making a safe and quick overtake (on some tricky sections). Saying thanks afterwards also helps.

Rider encouragement:

This is a great series of races for all our riders to experience the race atmosphere and for them to learn how to race. We do not want to discourage parents/friends/coaches from encouraging riders (and want this to happen) but it’s important that the riders are given this opportunity to learn how to race themselves as well.

So, can we ask that parents/friends/coaches refrain from following their riders around the course shouting at riders to "change gear, take that line, overtake him now etc". By all means pick a spot and encourage them through.
