david16v Posted April 6, 2011 Share They asked at the finish whether I completed the long or the short route. Haven't looked at the medals yet, but I suppose they differ The label/sticker on the medal states which distance you did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMD 1 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Perhaps they should outsource the Vigne a Vigne next year to another events coordinator. I Phoned them yesterday to complain and the lady I spoke to at grandstand events management was not aware of the issues. I told her to look at this forum to see the issues. She further told me that they outsourced the event logistics to another org as this seems to have been the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not quite the service I expected from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to let you know, you are the first person to ask for holding facilities. It is not bad service, it is practical planning. For interest sake, please let me know what other one day events offer this service. Thank you. Kind Regards Danielle McDonaldEvents Assistant dan nog cheeky daarby they also did the vineyard run and they had tog bag facilities... so i gave her a LIST!

duringd Posted April 8, 2011 Share So, Friday has arrived and no results yet! Just the fact that you have to pay a premium to enter this race makes one want to expect premium service. That includes results before the next year's race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That includes results before the next year's race. I didn't make the podium, so don't care much for the results (I've got my time logged on my garmin for my own records). What would be nice is some communication in this regard. If they tell us that sorry they forgot to time the damn thing or the 12 year old kid they asked to write down the numbers and times is dyslexic then at least we know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesley_r Posted April 8, 2011 Share Unfortunately I don't have a Garmin - just a regular cycle computer and I'm not even sure it's accurate all the time. Plus it obviously only times when the wheels are turning, so doesn't take into account my stops... I'm just really curious to know what my finishing time was and also it's nice to have a photo from the event (and yes, there was DEFINITELY a photographer on the 27km, maybe he cleared out early like the rest of the crew ) Wish they'd get their A's into G.
