I'm bad at it, usually entering late. I think alot more people would enter sooner if it could be done on line. Log on to the BC website, say you'll ride, pay via secure server and BC re-imburses the organiser. I hate printing stuff out, writing a cheque, buying stamps and envelopes then posting entries. I often find entries lying around a week after I filled them out. It's about the only time I use snail mail or my cheque book. |

in the past i never used to enter on time and always had to phone up and put my most pathetic voice on and explain that i was busy at school or that it was my first year racing and i didnt understand!!
this year however and the last half of 05 i have been much more organised and have most of my entries in til end of may.
however i will probably have to use my pathetic voice when i realise that all my cheques will bounce and that im a 'poor student' etc!!
well hopefully not. _________________ By cryky |
