Lounge Lizard Posted June 8, 2011 Share PPA members who want early entry to the Burger MTB ? - To make sure you get in before its full, or, - you want a chance at the Early Entry Competition prize ? Not so easy or cheap as you may think. Here's the thing.. CSA requires all riders to have (Pay for) some sort of CSA license.PPA members are (because its included as membership fee) also CSA members (for related events/ryders)PPA members therefore do not have to pay the CSA race fees extra at eventsPPA membership expires/is only renewable from 1 July 2011So, if you as PPA member, and enter online now for the end of July Burger MTB, you are not giventhe R20 PPA member discount and you have to pay an extra R 75 for a CSA license Because you are not a member from 1July onwards yet ! ? That R95 bucks discrimination against PPA members till 1 July Go figure ..... Don't these idiots talk to each other !!!

BlinkFan Posted June 8, 2011 Share This sucks... do you think entries (60k) will sell out before 1 July? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBK Posted June 8, 2011 Share has anybody raised this with PPA or the event organisers? It's quite possible they're not aware of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLuvsMtb Posted June 8, 2011 Share How about renewing your 2011/2012 membership so long. Then you've crossed this bridge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lounge Lizard Posted June 8, 2011 Share ..thats the point - you can't renew yet - only after 1 July Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevief Posted June 8, 2011 Share I entered and i am a PPa member and i had to pay the extra R20 bucks cause teh system didnt aknowledge i was a member and then i had to pay the extra R35 CSA license on top of it. So i got screwed R55 for a simple admin screw up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skubarra Posted June 9, 2011 Share Thanks Lounge Lizard. I'm new to the MTB scene and had the same problem. I thought I was the idiot for not understanding the PPA/CSA system. "Relieved" to see other people experiencing the same problem. Must say my first impressions of the organisation/admin of PPA not very good...

Jaco-fiets Posted June 10, 2011 Share Im sure they are not aware of this! Them being aware of this makes them pro active and there is no chance in hell that happens. @ lounge lizzard: Im sure these idiots dont talk to each other Edited June 10, 2011 by Jaco-fiets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slabs Posted June 10, 2011 Share Im sure they are not aware of this! Them being aware of this makes them pro active and there is no chance in hell that happens. @ lounge lizzard: Im sure these idiots dont talk to each otherThey are aware of it....but not that they are doing anything about it. Like post something on their website! The stock answer is that membership renewal will be available in about a week's time, where about can mean anything. This is highly frustrating and not sure why the event (or CSA) just does not except current PPA members. How many members are going to enter this race and not renew their membership?

Jaco-fiets Posted June 10, 2011 Share They would probably just turn a blind eye. I reckon they will loose a few entries about this. Out of principle i will not enter the race unless the issue is resolved. By the way, what will PPA membership fees be this year? I started cycling 4 years ago and back then it was R80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaBee Posted June 10, 2011 Share I'm pretty sure (but then, my memory is dodgy) this was not the case last year - also suspect it's an issue that they must simply be made aware of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
