SwissVan Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Swiss The motto is our company is: "A bad result, with a good excuse, is still a bad result" Leaving inexeperienced people organising the SA's is obviously a No-No. If the organisers planned properly. local traffic dept instructions would have been indentified in the planning stages as an issue that needed to be mitigated. Back to my company: With a bad result, the sh!t flows uphill, and senior people takes the fall. I hope CSA is run along sound business principles, and that a good Performance Appraisal system is in place. What are the odds??? Hello Frans Most of what you say is true, but on occasion situations do occur which no amount of planning can prevent. Bearing in mind we dont know yet what the "excuses" are, I'm just playing the CSA advocate here. Lets just hope that nothing tragic happens as a result of the problems.
No Name Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Probably because he's not racing there today Maybe he is happy cause he was at the top of the hill. verligting!
scotty Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Probably because he's not racing there today Ah, so he must be smiling at all the others grimacing
splat Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 He's only racing tomorrow. Thought so! Was well confused.
gummibear Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I see the guys are all getting a bit upset because they are being pulled off the course by the comms. Welcome to real racding guys! If you aint in it to win it, you're out! Euro-style!!!! Are they getting lapped that they are getting pulled?
splat Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 (edited) Are they getting lapped that they are getting pulled? 10% off the pace and you are pulled off the route Finish line is awash with riders who should be racing but are now spectators... Edited February 4, 2011 by splat
Spinnekop Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Andrew McLean taking 45+Moolman Welgemoed 40+ I think
Christie Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Nice pics! The vets bunch in the pic looks small-did they start in one big bunch?
theHED Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Burry and the rest of the guys that spend most of there time on mountain bikes will prefer this changed route to the original ... They want to climb!
Underachiever Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Hello Frans Most of what you say is true, but on occasion situations do occur which no amount of planning can prevent.

How's the training going? I know you are just playing CSA's side. I'm oversensitive to excuses, excuses, hear that every day!!! Agree that sh!t sometimes happen despite the best plans.
FJP Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Miskien moet CSA volgende keer net hulle eie dokumente lees en toepas Die "CSA Road - Event Oganizers Requirements 2011" kan hulle dalk handig te pas kom
Big J-WP Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I am really not suprised, CSA is useless... maybe PPA should organize the SA's Not a bad idea, thank goodness for a friend of mine that told me her times had changed. Otherwise my dad would of missed the start of his race. He has been in the cycling industry for over 40 years and he is super bef..k at the organising of this event. Well to those that make it on time to there atart good luck
Bat-ass Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 This is a bike race on public roads, organisation has to be perfect, peoples lives depend on it.... No excuses..
