So, was the increase in entry fee worth it for everyone?

 

 

 

I just completed an ASG post race survey. Hope they take the recommendations to heart.

ASG, please take the recommendations seriously that you asked for in your survey, otherwise there will not be a next year !

I was really pissed off and did not enter 2014 due to the fact that these guys are starting to charge such prices for races. I've done 8 jocks and the price keeps going up , how many top and front riders are interested in having bacon and eggs before a race and cold pasta salad for lunch, are we doing a race or is this a picnic. And what is the point of splitting the race in 3 stages. I know we not all pros but how do you get top guys to perform if you keep stopping the race. if they want to keep this race going they must go back to the old format and reduce the entry price.

Hahahahahaha , I have just received an email from ASG asking to buy the Jock 2015 entrance at a special of R520 , which means its a R200 discount. Wake up dudes , I wont pay R200 for next years Jock, if you do not address the concerns on the survey first !!!

Staff at registration were late and unhelpful and roads were really bad in sections . I always take my own food so they could cut that out entirely as far as i'm concerned but still love the race and will be there in 2015.

Only part that was bad is the Brondal section....rest of the road is actually quite good

Cheeky, this mail was sent before the official results were even up... I also don't want their food. I packed my own. Really not worth the money for what you get. Either they improve the race or lower the cost. The current cost vs return doesn't seem worth it I think.

What about the first few KM's coming out of Stage2 start. It was so bad, it cause our group to split. Guys riding on the wrong side of the road to avoid the crap surface. Also when marking pot holes, don't mark it only 2 metres before the hole, by then its too late.

Given we rode the Panorama Tour on the same roads we expected it, reason for my comment
