MountainRoadie Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Starting at 09:20am-ish, first Argus for me, can't wait
henry newbi Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 I still havent received an answer on my reseeding query. Guess they just started ignoring people.
CatGirl Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 just a quick q: in what road is the finish line? Main or Western....kannie onthou nie..teen die tyd dat ek by die finish aankom is ek nie meer so sharp nie
Wannabe Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Got this nonsensical reply to my query on my seeding for this years Argus. Hi  Please remember that the 2011 Tour enjoyed really good weather, which resulted in much faster times compared to the 2010 and 2009 tours. You would have had to cycle approx. 1hour faster, just to remain in your previous year’s seeded group.  Regards And my reply. Thank you very much for your reply. I however beg to differ from you, as it means I had to do a 2:43 Argus in 2011 (compared to 3:43 in 2010), whilst the winners in my starting group (E) only did a 2:56 in 2011. In 2010 the winner of my group (D) did a time of 3:15, which means, using your reasoning, that he had to do at least a 2:15 Argus in 2011. This is quite impossible, as it means he had to beat all the Elite riders, to achieve that. Be it as it may, I again thank you for the time you took to answer my query, I'm sure you had hundreds, if not thousands, of queries in the same vain. I really do not envy your job. Once again, thank you very much.

Heckflosse Posted February 22, 2012 Author Posted February 22, 2012 Brilliant response Wannabe, makes their response seem ridiculous  Love your response!!!! lol
Heckflosse Posted February 22, 2012 Author Posted February 22, 2012 I still havent received an answer on my reseeding query. Guess they just started ignoring people.Two of my friends, only got theirs yesterday.
Wannabe Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 It just beats me that "they" think we are so gullible to swallow the BS they dish up to us.
D-Mike Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 No answer would have been better than a stupid answer. If you don't make an effort to answer the query properly then what is the point in answering the first place?

If you don't make an effort to answer the query properly then what is the point in answering the first place? It just proves to me that their seeding criteria used for this year is totaly flawed. I mean, go an hour faster just to be able to stay in same seeded group. BOLLOCKS!!
Musashi Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Will any other Hubbers be on a mountain bike in group B?
