FondTF2 Posted October 24, 2023 Share To steer the post in a different direction, what are the weather god predictions for the day? If the last couple of days are to go by, I predict a hot and windy ride. Dexter-morgan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinnekop Posted October 24, 2023 Share Got a reply via WA now that A batch is rated 45km/h average. That would give the expected winning time of the A bunch at 2:06. 5 Minutes faster than last year's Elite winner Reinhardt Janse van Rensburg What a F($%$ JOKE FondTF2, 475, Schnavel and 8 others 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(struggled a bit as the password saved for the site on my phone was not right). Turns out that even though I entered in July, there was some outstanding information they still wanted from me. But I received an email in July saying I've entered, no other comms saying they dont have all the info they need to register me. Anyway, thats complete now, lets wait and see where they seed me. Right, so yesterday I get a whatsapp saying the gent I helped enter has outstanding info that is urgently required. i sat down with him today to complete that info, and its all information that we had already supplied when we entered him. (email address, phone number, med aid and emergency contact details etc.) WTF are these people doing ? Mtree 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peetwindhoek Posted October 24, 2023 Share Now this is a first for me at least. All you okes asking for reseeding got me bumped DOWN! Here I was minding my own business NOT moaning about seeding as I was seeded in A. Happy with that and wanted to take on Spidey for the podium this year. Only to get this now via WhatsApp: *Reseed - Virgin Active 947 Ride Joburg* Hi Peet We try to seed riders of similar ability together, based on your past Ride Joburg results or other MTB/Road results we felt it necessary to change your batch. We initially seeded you in batch A, you are now seeded in batch F which starts at 7:00. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. All the best Team Ride Joburg Sheesh, the burn!

117 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Giving my tickets away if anyone needs 2 road tickets. Batch for the replacement will not stay the same as mine, so you wont be able to bounce your way from a bad seeding to a better one with these in batch R No, its not because of the poor event admin either, but I will be out of the country over the race period and therefore will not need them https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/event-entries/678057/ride-jhb-road-race-ticket-give-away TheoG and Dexter-morgan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WR 1.0 Posted October 25, 2023 Share What to do next....... Following emails and WA's back and forth for the last week, the entry is now finally showing in my name. But they have clearly just replaced the 6 years old info with mine as the seeding was still in KK. I asked for a reseed and got the "request declined" message now. The whole issue is due to their system issues and not my fault. Do I know fork out extra cash and try to get into an earlier group via a charity batch?
