Two days into March and it still doesn't feel a bit like Spring. Although it is sunny the mercury is at 11 degrees with a 13 mph wind chill. I have a handful of outdoor rides under my belt with the majority of my time spent on the trainer and lifting light weights. I am bored out of my skin! Tonight is the Iceman Cometh registration at 1900. It was re-scheduled after the Friday night website meltdown forced the change of date. The days are getting longer and warmer and I am so ready to check out the countryside North of town. Cheers.
UPDATE:
Thank you for your efforts to get registered for this year's Iceman Cometh Challenge. I know that last Friday and tonight were both very frustrating and disappointing.
We appreciate your efforts to participate and your passion for the event!
Dear Craig,
We have suspended the online registrations for the moment due to unprecented activity on the SBO site.
Now we have to step back and will be spend quite a bit of time in the next few days scrubbing the registrations that were sucessful tonight. Those sucessful entries are 100% valid.
However, there are still quite a number of corrections that need to be made in order to have a good solid list of particpants. Once the database is in order, we'll post a list of the riders that are currently registered.
Regardless, of the method we use to move forward from here, it will be some time before we'll be able to announce just what that method will be.
Honestly, right now, I am leaning towards going back to the "Old School" method of paper entries for the remainder of the field.
Thank you again for your patience!
I know you have a choice about which events you attend throughout the year and I can only say that the 2009 Iceman will rise above this registration disaster!
Now go ride and work your frustrations out!
Steve Brown
