need Burger race entry badly

[CaptainDura]

It seems I was sleeping and let the Burger entries close before I could enter.

 

Seeing the entries are now closed the only way to ride is to buy one from someone that is already entered and do a name change.

 

If anyone knows of or has a Burger entry that is not going to be used, please let me know asap.

Guys, just phoned them and they said they are not accepting substitutions - what is up with that !!!

 

Anyone got any clout with them ? 

 

(oh and popeye - it's yours if we can arrange to get you in. we might have to dress you in a "chicken outfit so no-one recognises you or something. maybe a spiderman outfit or just a compression kit with a Ninja mask )

I got a flippin wedding in JHB I have to go to as it's close familly. (close familly means close enough to be offended if you don't go or buy a small present )

 

If they were that close they should have known about the race and been more considerate. Why can't they organise there lives around cyling like the rest of us!!!! Geez SOME PEOPLE !!!

wil hulle nie sommer nog 'n paar goed bysit nie? Hoeveel hulle op skool gekry het, watse size skoen hulle dra, daai tipe ding nie? Hels bells

 

anyways...julle kan julle altyd clowns hou en langs die pad malgaan as ons verbykom - would be much appreciated

dit klink na 'n plan of hoe oom POPS. jy het mos gese ons kan op jou knoppie druk. hoeveel charge jy vir 'n leadout to in stellies en terug. die koffie by die M&B is op my, so onthou om dit van jou fooi af te trek!

Guys you won't believe flippin ridiculous actions that have just occurred - If I had a Goldfish I would drown it I am so flippin P'ed off !!!!

 

Popeye e-mailed them asking about the possibility of a substitution and gave them my name, ID & ref number. They (Pat White) then replies via e-mail and states that there are no substitutions allowed AND they will immediately cancel my entry - just like that !!!!

 

no correspondance with me - NOTHING, NADA, ZIP F#$% ALL!!!

 

As Popeye stated - what if he had enquired about a substitution with David George - would they have just cancelled his entry as well !!!

 

Anyway sent them an e-mail and told them that unless I personally instruct them, they are NOT to cancel my entry!!

 

EISH - I CANT BELIEVE !!!!

[Mrs Colonel]

Now here's the cracker question - If they cancell your entry....do you get a refund?

[racman]

Thanks for reminding me MrsC especially just when my blood pressure was starting to subside.

 

There are also NO REFUNDS !!!!

 

Now I really don't mind the no refund policy but at least allow substitutions. What is with that !! A little more admin work.

 

I won't even go to the replies I got when I tried to get substitutions for my Argus entry's (3 of them) as I am riding in a corporate group. They said that, although substitutions are allowed,  they would be reluctent to assist with my particular situation as it would be more admin work - COME ON !!!
