[Event] Carnival City Macsteel National Classic

Some exciting new projects are going to be announced via email, to everyone on the database, but I can briefly share this news as entries are open:

  • Ambassador program - where you get a chance to win a free entry to next year's event.
     
  • #RideForACause campaign - we've teamed up with 4 charities where riders can choose to raise funds for the following:
    • Choc
    • NSPCA
    • Pink Drive
    • MDA Fighting Muscle Disease

There will also be a charity start group, for cyclists that officially register with these charities - 103Km event only.

  • Seeding - I've requested an option to include a field for you to enter your PPA seeding index (any time before entries close), which means 50 races used in 2015 will be considered - depending which one gives you the best result. It makes the seeding process a helluva lot simpler to manage.

    Don't think it means one can add any number as I have a way to double check. By adding it yourself, we don't need to request permission from any organiser to use YOUR results from other races. Remember that your time/result is yours and not the timing company's or race organiser.

Just under 4 weeks to go.

 

Today is payday for many, so if you were waiting until you get some moola, "hint hint!"

 

Just a reminder that we have teamed up with 4 great charities:

 

The Cows

Pink Drive

Muscular Dystrophy SA

The NSPCA

 

Like the 947, you get to start in a charity batch if your seeding is not too hot. There is only one batch and due to start after group D.

 

Enter online at www.germistonclassic.co.za

 

Last but not least, Team Vitality members can claim up to 25% of their race entries back. The more that claim, the better chance they will increase it for 2017, as the % works on the popularity of events (number of claims).

geraldm24....Any chance you guys are going to be the pioneers of letting us print our own numbers instead of driving to a bike shop? :clap:  :clap:

 

:devil:

You know you want to.

Show them how it is done!  :whistling:

No pressure at all. 

 

*all of a sudden everyone keeps an eye on this thread.

If your club is not listed and is a registered club, then let me know.

Maybe contact the Edenglen club (if you haven't already), they sure like to drink... and ride.
