The Gorrick folks have postponed tomorrow's (03/030 race due to the weather..... see below.
t's a shame (we were going over to support our son who was due to race) but I'm not surprised especially as parking is a bit tricky there and everywhere sodden.
"Despite the team's hard work over the past 2 weeks, the course being prepped and the facilities in place, last night's heavy rain on top of the recent exceptionally heavy rain that hasn't soaked in as quickly as usual, means that we must now postpone this Sunday's event.
We would not be able to run the event as we need to, parking would be difficult, we need to consider the safety of all riders and we need to protect the venue for the future.
We're therefore postponing the event to Sunday 14 April. All entries to this full event will be transferred to that date and will not re-open unless any spaces become available. We will email all entered riders. If you can't make it, then please email info@gorrick.com and we'll refund your entry.
Please accept our sincere apologies for any disappointment."
That’s a great email, to the point, no waffle, you can tell they mean it, no pointless handwringing. Well apart from that last sentence maybe.
Why can’t they all be like that.
Just looking at their entry site and it looks like entries (well my old geezers cat anyway) are open, so assuming they've refunded a lot of folk. Anyway gives me a chance to enter for the new date.
Scrub round that, looking again the 14th April is full.
