Thats what I did last year, Admitedly I didnt do it publically, but Strechie asked people locally if they would help out. Some of those people had already ridden the local stretches of road or some of it that we were riding on.
As ride leader I wanted some say in who was doing the marking, as per my original post in this thread.
Yet here we are, it would appear that some people appear to feel disgruntled even though I followed a process which you seem to be recommending.
I'm not reading anything at the moment, that makes me feel that the process is broken or doesnt work. I take the point about increaed feeling of participation, but my thoughts are that in this case the benefits of having pre-selected dedicated markers outweigh the disadvantages of not having the ride organised in this way.
