The Ouzo Posted October 17, 2023 Share I managed to log into the howler site again. (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.

Frosty Posted October 17, 2023 Share 2 hours ago, Avo said: Same here! Why is the seeding a mess every year? Have also lodged a seeding query. I see seeding queries close tomorrow. I remember getting a WhatsApp from them saying seeding was being done in the last week of September. I too saw that seeding queries were closing on the 18th, so sent them a message to query if they had send out seeding info. Luckily I’m seeded where I wanted to be, and have the correct number of completed races showing this year, unlike last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJDT Posted October 17, 2023 Share Where do you query the number of races completed? I'm doing no 21 this year and it shows 18. The seeding is also a disgrace as I did a 3:18 last year and seeded in K last year was F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seeding is also a disgrace as I did a 3:18 last year and seeded in K last year was F. Kept my own records since day one. Especially the earlier versions. This is in fact my 23rd event this year - but was DQ'd one year after finishing with a different company timing chip. All evidence (Garmin, Strava etc) was ignored and deemed irrelevant. For the very first events - Do not even think they had digital results. Certificates were mailed. Over the years there have been multiple timing companies involved. You may still be able to get results in some of the old ones. Edited October 17, 2023 by pedal menace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have a photo or 2 as proof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedal menace Posted October 17, 2023 Share Hmmm...was thinking - what's the chance I appeal again and ask that my 2013 event still be added to Racetec DB? I still have Garmin files etc... What is the statute of limitations of riding with an incorrect chip? 37 minutes ago, pedal menace said: Kept my own records since day one. Especially the earlier versions.
