Fast One : Disappointed

[davidd]

Is anyone else as disappointed as I am with regards to

 

• the invisible race pack
• the lack of photographers along the route?

Pickn Pay being the sponsor could surly have given us an energy car or a tiny super-c roll.

 

The cost of the entries are high and **blah blah** the costs of hosting the race are high **blah blah** but with top sponsors expected more.

I think that only the open cats get race packs, so I dont even bother anymore since I'm licensed. Did the open cats also not get a race pack?

 

I only saw 2 guys taking photos along the roadside, but got mauled by photographers after the race.

[spano]

did you enjoy the race?

did you feel the adrenaline pump in the final 10s before the start?

can you still hear the sound of all the wheels whining on the road?

how did you feel when you crossed the finish line?

 

why did you enter?

for a roll of super-c's ?

 

sure I was also dissapointed when I saw my copy "The Star" and the entry is pretty steep, but I had a great time yesterday!

so I'm not gonna join the complaining..

spano in response

 

YES

YES

NOT REALLY

EXTATIC

TO HAVE A GOOD RIDE

NO (BUT WOULD HAVE BEEN GOOD)

 

I would have liked more photos.... that is my biggest peeve...

but you right, its for the ride... last year there were photographers around every corner

To be honest I did have a good race. My bike stayed in one piece and I did my best time for 103km's to date. Some people need the goody bag to feel special

I have to travel from Benoni to Fourways for number collection - its probably the same distance from Centurion. It sucks I know.  

[davidd]

they used to offer an option to courier race number? what happened to that.

even coming from randburg to fourways sucks.

Yea Yea we can all complain about something.. The race pack, the wind, the road condition, the lack of photographers ext.

But at the end of the day we all had the privalige to ride our bikes ,be free and enjoy life...!

 

And it sets a good platform for the year the year to come.
