Race Fail: Ashburton Meerendal 2016

How much do you get paid by them...?

 

People are allowed to complain all they want, to be exact, 350 reasons why. 

A simple sorry year after year doesn't cut it anymore, and boycotting the events in the future doesn't fix the past and money spent.

 

On a personal note, do everyone here a favor and stop climbing into their characters, regardless of their comments. Your every thought doesn't justify a post.

 

Post of the month!

Sorry for Hi-jacking this thread.

 

Hope one of you guys can answer.

 

I was asked to be a "Choc Cow" Sweeper at the Ashburton Sabie Ultra race.. But this is where my problem comes in. Because you have to be a sweeper, you must start at the tail end and help the Last guys doing the Ultra. But, when they don't make the Cut-Offs at halfway or before Halfway, will I also be taken off the course (as I have to ride with the last guys,being a sweeper and all),and seeing as its a UCI Event?

Because I am also using this race as a Training ride for 36One. And no-one can answer me. And I def don't want a DNF on my record....

There was literally no water at the third water point, after 10:30ish. I watched the last 5 cups go down. Really really poor rider consideration - especially considering it was already over 30 degrees. Super bleek and won't do this ride next year. Not sure what happened though - the Trailseeker last year was fantastic.

I read threads like this and I'm still so glad I skip most of these events....it's not why I ride! Same sh*t every year.

 

Will keep sussing out the smaller events!

Sneaky swine!! But seriously...surely as a sweeper you can't get taken off the course. There would never be any sweepers who made it past half way then??

I guess not. But I already said yes, and don't like going back on my word. And now I have an excuse to go slow ha ha ha ha ha ha :ph34r:  :whistling:
