Whats with all this talk about the league being called off this year. not enough entries they said they need a minimum of 250 entries and they only have 95 !!! Cut off for entries is 31 of this month.

I'm just repeating what i was told.

yep , true.

can't understand the logic. the entries are so much cheaper.

5 road races & 1 hill climb (there are no crits)

Take out the gravel section and fix all the potholes and I would enter.

 

Saw people crash last year cause the road was so bad.

Every year people whine about the gravel section. Its 5mins of mild offroad riding. I think it makes for great variation in the racing.

What about all the potholes that I constantly had to dodge on the tar section?

 

Edit: I am a roadie for a reason. Don't want dust on my white kit.

you're not a real roady then. Have you seen what the pros look like after paris-roubaix?

[Let's Ride]

For sure.

 

When you come off your bike at 60km/h in a ppa race cause of a bad road surface (bunch of us came down). Have your bike ridden over by a car and narrowly miss your head then come talk again.

 

Keep the gravel section in but why not make sure the roads (the tar section) are not full of potholes etc.

 

I see too many races where crashes could have been avoided (crossing railway lines but only a 2m wide mat going over the line while the group is way wider, and what do you get, a nice crash.

Looking forward to some good times in the league!

 

If you go fast enough, you'll fly over the potholes

They better not be calling it off, I put in loads of effort on the IDT this winter....and I am sure there are other people too.

guys what is the entry fee for the series and how does 1 go about registering??

Are there any criteria/qualifications which needs to be met??

When/if i enter the Pro series does the entry fee cover the costs to all the races or do i still have to pay entry to each race???

Sorry for tall the questions, just looking to get some feedback before i take the plunge...My best Argus time is 3:29...

So how will i fit in there or will i be left in the dust???

Thanks guys

Seeding should be A-C, this is hard racing, I started in STARS last season, which suited me well to learn, etc. But I had to work myself up, I am now a B seeding. Id say you can't really use your Argus time however you'd want an sub3 time just my opinion.
