[Event] Coronation Double Century 2017

that's hectic, then the entry process changed, if i remember correctly only the team manager enters, team members are added thereafter? bummer

I think this only applies to general and corporate entries. Have asked them to confirm this as well.

Them saying that, and actually checking is another story.... like e-tolls, you MUST pay, but not really.

I have called Racetec who is handling entries and was told all 12 team names and members have to be paid up. The PPA entries will be vetted to confirm all 12 are paid up. I have emailed them as well to confirm and will post a reply here. 

might struggle to sell 40 entries then

40 x 12 = 480, there slightly more than that PPA members, surely!

E-Toll sent me an account for R7 for a car I don't own and I am in CPT.

And theirs say that they won't talk to you anymore if you don't pay.

 

Talk about an incentive to not pay......

This is what I expected and as I read it.

So only the captain needs to be a PPA member

That also means you have to know your 12 riders in August already, that removes half the fun.

Fat chance of that happening. It's probably only to secure the entry initially.

Not a real issue as all are PPA members.

Exactly!

so who got this letter ?

 

 

I am really sorry to have to say 'goodbye' to you. This will be my last monthly CEO letter to you, as you will soon be taken off our database and will no longer receive the regular newsletters from PPA until you renew your membership for the new membership year which started on 1 July. We'll send out one more invoice later this week. At roughly R30 per month for a main member or R15 per month for an additional family member or R8 per month for a junior (u/18) member, we do hope you find value in what we do for cycling, cycling events, and cyclists in general, and will consider renewing your membership soonest.

 

Since my last letter, two more cyclists have died on our roads and they will not be the last.

 

We seem to live in a society where some people apparently think they can get away with murder and they do, literally. We listen to the victims who tell us about the lack of interest and lack of professionalism shown by the police or prosecuting authorities. We are doing as much as we possibly can - getting information, using our contacts to get action from the authorities, speaking to the victims and their families, offering our assistance where possible and within reason.

 

really? What genius P.R.O dreamt this up
