Aouch!

That sucks – I had meant that I was going to email Aiden to see if he had a reserve list he would like to offer my place to. I never expected, or asked for, a refund and sold my place to dave360 off of here – for a discount as I figured if he hadn’t asked for it I wouldn’t have got anything.

I hope Aiden’s experience doesn’t put him, or others, off organising events in future. People willing to put their time and effort into organising events for us to ride in/at deserve support and appreciation, not abusive emails for the sake of a few quid!

Do people actually think that SSUK is some mega-corp with someone permanently poised at a keyboard?!

p.s. dave360 – if you’re reading this, I hope you enjoyed it and drank my share of the beer 🙂

Great event shame that Aiden offered any refunds at all he was too kind

Asking for a refund just because the weather looks a bit dodgy etc is a bit ……….

All I can say is the event was better for those types not turning up

I guess when they realised there wasn’t a 10 storey marquee etc etc they thought it wouldn’t be a good event !

Wrong but hey don’t tell em cos I’m happier if they don’t come

Wow having just read that blog entry im amazed people can be that lame,it was a great event and cheap to boot, if people were pulling out due to weather etc thats up to them i cant believe they would want a refund!!!

^^^^^^^THIS

Jeff has hit the nail square on the head there.

I cancelled and asked for a refund, but didn’t expect one. New job meant I had to cancel at last minute – I was gutted not to go. I spent whole weekend being pissed off and resenting work.

Hmmm…I can’t have been only one with a genuine reason?

It was an excellent event (even though I was cursing through out the race) I even had fun MCing for rollapaluza for the night.

I was just chuckling to myself on my early morning ride this morning at the ‘ ride it as you see it ‘ line at the start- proper funny!

Morvelo should do a tee shirt with it on
