Reply to "Hand-drawn map phase out"

I'm not sure which thread this belongs now but -

There is another good reason to keep the maps in black and white - race logistics.

I work as the technical director for about 70+ events a year and always need to distribute copies of the course. Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of having a color printer available all the time.

Even more important, ALL maps regardless of computer prepared or hand drawn should clearly indicate where on the road the runners are allowed to run - especially taking turns. I have done some spot checking and even some posters here (and I have been just as quilty) have a few holes in their maps!

Our maps need to be working documents and should all of the basics for a race director, course dirctor, or validator to do their jobs.
