Oakland Grand Prix
Sun, 06/27/2010 - 10:59pm
So is it happening or not? The link says a decision was supposed to be made Saturday. Will it be rescheduled? Shouldn't i be able to get my money back if i can't make the rescheduled date? I know asking for reimbursement for my airline change fee now that i don't need to take the red eye since i won't be racing is out of the question.
The Oakland Grand Prix 7/5 has been replaced with the Big Creek Lumber Criterium 7/5 at the former Castle Air Force Base in Atwater (near Merced and Snelling). Everyone entered in the Oakland Grand Prix is now entered in the Big Creek Lumber Criterium. If you desire to drop out and get a credit for a future VP race, send an e-mail to velopromo@sportsbaseonline.com by Wednesday at 5pm to get the credit and the same email address to use the credit in the future. The schedule for Big Creek Lumber is going up on velopromo.com, and is the same as for the Oakland Grand Prix, with a smaller prize list and entry fee for the 1/2/Pro and Women 1/2 races, but otherwise the same. The course is flat, shady, two 90 degree right turns and one long 180 curve.
My apologies for the last minute change. Please spread the word. I hope to do Oakland later in the year, date tba. I welcome your comments on how this could have been handled better next time, at velopro1@sonnet.com
