I don't understand why you are surprised? Aren't you are the race director? Is this an XC or HS? Would like to know so I can plan for it appropriately. IE I prefer an XC and camping but if it is a HS I may/may not even go.

:cheers:
And so it begins, the schedule isn't even dry from being printed and people are already making statements about how they would like the race run. If you want to have input into the race volunteer to run it.

maybe you should re-read the posts? Don't seem to recal telling him to do anything regarding the race.

AJRJ, thanks again for clearing that up and specifying that this is an XC, good luck with your preperations and planning.

I think you were suggesting to AJRJ that it should be an XC since if it was a HS you may or may not even go.

This is supposed to be a thread about the schedule. The RMDRA race threads go in a different forum. Let's keep this on topic which is the schedule.

Well, I guess you thought wrong. Please don't pull and quote just a segment of what I said, as for sure it can now be taken out of context.

Part of a schedule is submitting it accurately, intitially there was talks of just an HS now it's an XC, which I would think would be part of a race schedule (Knowing which one it is, that is), at least that's the way all the other clubs and organizers approach this in that they submit whether or not they are doing a HS or an XC.

Perhaps Dobi should be the one to not comment as you are absolutley right DB, that this is a post about race 'schedule', which dobi's post had absolutley nothing to do with.

Further more, there are several individual posts in this thread that aren't related to the 'schedule' why are you singling out mine. if you are to do this, you should make an example of the other 10-15 posts that aren't 'related' too.

your comment in my opinion came across as if it isn't a XC you aren't coming. Sorry for the misinterpretation there. These types of off hand comments are frustrating for those of us that put in the time to run events like this, regardless of their intention.

I am glad to see the event is on the schedule and that AJRJ has stepped up to the plate to pull this off.

What do you mean part of a schedule is submitting it accurately? There have been a few people doing some communicating to the AMSA, and to be honest it was a bit of a scramble to ensure we HAD a race on the calender.


The way this post, and your original post, are worded its easy to see why it could be interpreted wrong. My reply was originally intended to be sarcastic, but that didn't come through either. Honestly you would not attend a club race because its an HS? That would be too bad, as we typically would want to encourage all riders to go. Some people are probably reading this as there first exposure to racing, not to mention this club or this site.

I will happily consider race feedback or suggestions, but please by pm only.

Steve-o you are right. I won't pull and grab quote segments in the future. I apologize for doing so with your post.

It appeared to me that if it wasn't a XC you may/may not be going to it. Off hand comments like this are frustrating to me.


The comments I made about keeping on topic were directed at everyone.
