There are strategically placed at points around the circuit that look to cover most, if not all, of the track. Marshalls continually monitor riders approaching and leaving their area with flags at the ready to warn the riders of any eventuality, particularly riders that have broken down or taken a tumble who are an hazzard, in cases where riders need assistance there is always someone seemingly close by to help, sometimes they seem to appear from nowhere. Racing does not start until all the Marshalls are in place and inevitably there are sometimes short delays.

There are some hilly areas and plenty of places to watch the racing by the circuit fences where spectators can watch the racing.
