DJR Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) They really need to rethink the registration at the River Club ...... What a dog show - surely they would anticipate everyone coming over lunch! I parked outside at Hartleyvale and walked in, found no delays, got the whole families numbers in no time at all, walked out past the frustrated drivers that struggled to get in and out of the River Club, and was on my way in a matter of minutes. Easy peasy! Edited November 28, 2013 by DJR
StoneW Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 The problem is not with the Die Burger registration, most of the parking is taken up by people going to the Addidas sale which is also happening at The Rive Club. Less than 10% of the cars are for Die Burger.

StoneW Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Bad Planning by the River Club to have both these events on the same day. Park outside the number collection takes less than a minute.

Easy peasy!The actual registration was easy peasy - Only when I turned into the River Club did I realize my error. I parked right at the turn into River Club ... felt for the people parked in near the main buildings Edited November 28, 2013 by JGR
allez Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 I am going to the Oakdale club tomorrow afternoon. Hope it will go smooth.

Pure Savage Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Was quick process, in and out in 4 min.
Lone_Ranger Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Terrible planning. Took me 45 mins to get out of the parking area, after I realised that I should park outside.

The fact that there is only prices for the first three men and ladies in such a big event is a ripoff and a slap in the faces of all the other categories. We all pay the same entry fee and must also be allowed to race for something or is it only the elite cycles that diserve prices. All other big classics in South Africa has category prices, why not the Burger. It is not about price money but to be recognized for your hard work. Just a concern rise by a passioned cycles BabyAndy 1

It is a funride after all! Edited November 28, 2013 by Dick
Jaco-fiets Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Ok guys I am out for the race. Got a nice surprise this morning when I walked all kitted into garage just to discover that my roadbike with my brand new edge 500 (got yesterday) was stolen during the night. I am still in shock! Don't think the insurance will pay out since there was no forced entry (garage closed but backdoor not locked). Even if they pay out it is only insured for R40 000 so these days can't buy much decent for that *******!!!!
