Well , for a start, how about " Its riddled with mistakes and errors".
Absolutely hopeless, inaccurate. You want some examples? How about cyclo-cross races with Neutral Service and NEG support!! How about grossly inaccurate course maps - even different to BC website maps of the same event! How about totally inaccurate event category information! and again different to BC and NDCXL information! NDCXL round 2, Southglade Park , Bestwood is described as Youth Only with NEG, showers and neutral service! Hope you have told Ashfield RC!
Actually, I'm not bitching about this website, I just want to point out that its inaccurate, hopeless and a complete waste of space.
Or perhaps it just reflects BC East Mids?
I could go on , but I will just end with ?????????????!!!!!!?????????????

Ray,

are you looking at a parallel website, for the Ashfield event it says NEG - No, showers - no, neutral service - no. Rolling Eyes

Stick to taking photos of the events and not having a moan and bitch at every opportunity.

Best make it quick though, before it gets sold off for community housing "
The Foresters is not what it was, I can't wait for Greene King to close it, sell it off so that the proposed housing development can take place. The Foresters Arms is an an anachronism, most of the very few customers are over 80 years old, its not a viable business. I can't understand why Greene King bought out Hardys and Hansons Kimberley Brewery as they have closed the brewery and all of the pubs.
Back to the EM regional website: What is the point of a website that contains such a load of inaccurate nonsense?

Try looking at the Derby Mercury Road Race Event HG Sutton Bonington - Course details which takes you to a map of the Heather circuit in Leicestershire!!

Ray, I entered in some of the Events and yes I checked all the right boxes and were I new from knowledge of courses put in showers/changing/car parking etc. Sadly the website didnt seem to keep that info.

I passed on the problem to the Web master and have great faith in them to sort.

I by no means had any involvement in its creation, but offered what support I could to keep it filled with information.

Be apart of the soloution Ray and not the problem.

Ps I know you only post sometimes to wind people up but in the time it took you to type this you could have entered more events in the Calendar.

Nothing changes does it? Sometimes I wonder just how much further cycling as a sport might have moved without all the petty in fighting.

Nice to see the Breeze initiative from BC. Only twenty years late Smile

Did some funding come online?
