D Vader Posted March 6, 2012 Share R120 for a 20km ride must be a new top R/km race, bit steep?This is without the R50 line entry.Not that I believe races should be judged on price per km, but I don't liked being ripped off.Maybe it is really fantastic and worth every penny.

Hi D Vader, Thanks for your comment. It is a pity you didn’t get a chance to ride the event before concluding that we are ripping you off. We also do not judge an experience on price per km, but rather try to provide riders with an experience that is worth the fee they are charged. For an event like this, factors such as the route, the vibe, the start end and times, and the features (just to mention a few) are all much more important than the length of the race(?). If we made the race 30km, it certainly would not increase the value by 50%, it would probably detract from the whole experience. Regarding the line entry fee, due to the fact we are running the event every month, we are trying to encourage ALL riders to enter online before the event. We are even going to be keeping the entries open until the last minute to facilitate this. Handling line entries on the day further detracts from the riders positive experience, as it leads to queues and other complications. Trust me, we are not trying squeeze money out of riders (or “rip anyone off” as you put it) – we are trying to put on a top quality, fun event, that maximises the enjoyment for all who enter! So far everyone who has entered seems to agree… Why not come along and enter, and see for yourself? Edited March 6, 2012 by ASG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
