Underachiever Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 I'm in AL. Eish, I've not raced since last years 94.7. Probably will drop down a group or 2. :-) Which goes against the logic they told me they used to do the seeding.
Baaisikilist Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Great. We can make it a team TT if we carry on like this I still haven't received an email. I've only ever done 1 road race. My index is 23.something. Let's see if I get AL, or ZL. Seems it can go either way...
Hennie VR Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Just received a phone call from Jill after I emailed them and asked for a re-seeding. They can't re-seed me because I only did Lost City this year and they don't use that race for seeding. None of my other races are used either because they only use races that fall in a certain period for the seeding. So it does not matter if your index is 25, you have to race certain races to get seeded for R4V. Disappointed that I can't get re-seeded but impressed that they followed up on my email request within 1.5 hours. Still looking forward to the race. Hopefully I can ride with a few strong people that also got seeded wrong and still get a decent time. At least I can pass a lot more slower riders now which is always better than being passed when you drop from the higher bunches

TALUS Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Suddenly I am sorry that I didn't enter. Looks like there will be some really fast trains coming past if you dropped off the pace.....
