...or sooner, if the remaining places are snapped up before then.
That's it. Don't fanny about.

What better Christmas pressie (to yourself) than 2hrs of bicycle based self-flagellation followed by top notch food?
Utter win!

So I entered on the 1st Dec but not showing on the start list. Why would that be? Do I stay in bed?
Posted 5 months ago # -
I haven't updated the list for a bit. Later this week.

OK, I will set my alarm then

I think HtN should give me a free entry as a gesture of friendship from the North to the South. After all, I keep hearing about this fabled Northern friendliness and generosity and stuff...

TJ and his stoker are in.
Elf got lost in the technological terror that is the British Cycling website.Posted 5 months ago # -
TJ is in as far as I know. Not sure about t'Elf.
Jase is looking after the entry. I'm in charge of cones.
EDIT - How about that for customer service? We can get back to you as fast as other people can talk to our sponsors.

the comment relates to a deleted thread where the Elfin stated that Buff products were no better than the 2.99 alternatives, a staff member of Buff took offence, argued the case for their product and offered Elfin a free genuine Buff at the next event he see's their stand at.

TBH I've not felt that I'd be welcome, so you won't be seeing me there.
I'm sure you'll all be gutted...

IT'S CLOSED.Posted 5 months ago # -

I tried to enter online, but there was a glitch or something, and it woon't let me. I offered to pay for a ticket directly to the organisers, but instead of actually trying to help me out, certain persons claimed that there was nothing wrong with the online system, when apparently there was. I wasn't given any information as to how to get round the issue, other than to try doing what had been failing all along. Hardly helpful.
Then there were a few arsey comments by some of the organisers. All because I criticised a system that wasn't working properly.
Nice. Good to see that fabled Northern Friendliness and Hospitality...

So definitely close then?

there wasn't a glitch, however you were asked to check that a particular box on the website was checked.
You then replied with a 'can't be bothered now' email, so there wasn't much else we could do.
Now, if you'd simply emailed me via the address published on the website and on the entry page, I could have helped you but you decided to make a medium-to-large fuss on a public forum at the same time that others were entering the event quite successfully.So definitely close then?
yes. Sorry, it filled up really quickly (a mere 10 weeks)Posted 5 months ago # -
Forgot to check this morning
I'll probably be there anyway, I think you emailed one of my club leaders about the junior races Terrahawk.

Which I tried to, but the system woon't let me.

I coon't be bothered with the faff of trying all that again, after it had failed several times for me over a period of several hours. I offered to pay youse separately if you could reserve me a place, could you not have done that?
you decided to make a medium-to-large fuss on a public forum
Well, at least I got a quicker response than when I did actually email someone.
Pook's and CrazyLegs' comments made me feel that I was not welcome. I'd actually prefer it if you had the stones to just say that, rather than try to be funny with pics and stuff.

You aren;t welcome Elf. This is a friendly race for friendly people
happier now?
Posted 5 months ago # -
Elf - get a grip sunshine.Ihit the same tumbling block on the website as you did but I found the way out of it. you should have got it soerted. never mind

I'm very friendly. Ask everyone who's met me, rather than judging someone you don't know.
you should have got it sorted
I emailed Hairy Spider, who forwarded it on to the BC bloke, who din't offer any useful advice at all. Basically said to do exactly what I'd already done. That took two days just to get that unhelpful 'advice'.
I offered to pay directly if someone cooduv sorted me a ticket. Why coon't they have just done that?
Not a very nice way to treat someone, speshly considering I've cajoled others into entering.

Just hold on a there...
I don't want people saying who is or isn't welcome at HtN.
Posted 5 months ago # -
nbt, crazylegs and pook are not organisers of HTN, so even if they said you're not welcome it wouldn't mean very much at all.
me and Andrew are the people you need to speak to. If you want to enter HTN, email me please and we'll sort this out 'offline'.
This public ranting against our event needs to stop right now.Posted 5 months ago # -
I've already emailed Hairy this morning. I got a quicker response on the forum, which is why I'm using it instead of relying on emails.
Posted 5 months ago # -
he's not at work today so wouldn't be able to read your email.
Posted 5 months ago # -
Yep.
I've been up th'ills admiring the views. Here is a photo of Ramsbottom from Peel Tower.
