open letter to Ed and the Worcester massize

Just to say a soz to Ed ,for us lot not doing the MM2(hope the rest of the Massive dont mind).We waited until the last minute ,but Metcheck was still saying Storms with 100mm of rain in the afternoon alone.We could have waited till the morning but thought you deserved better.
If there is another I for one will be there.
To the other Massive(drew,Lily,WidePants,Girth and ermmm....Hovis)What a fab weekend.Thanks for the bed,weekend away and the most brill times.
Oh and thanks for Org friendship.

Bloody weather forecast. I went to Widnes on Sunday, they predicted 2" of rain. The sun was out & not a cloud in the sky. I went in the car & not on the bike.
I'll be honest I think that Ed & everybody else made the right choice, people wouldn't have enjoyed it as much as the last one & wouldn't have turned up for any future ones

your welcome

and well said about the ride

sorry Ed I for one was looking forward to doing the whole route this time

Well guys I wasn't going to comment but this thread has rather flushed it all out and I may as well be honest. I hope you don't mind.

A number of bikes withdrew during the week before.

Then I had 6 withdraw the night before.

That left only a few. I felt it was unfair to the people concerned to drag em so far for such a small meet. Also I didn't think it worth the effort in running it.

I was p*ssed off to be honest.

BUT - and it's a big but - I fully understand the reasons why people withdrew, they were made in good faith. So perhaps it was more disappointment than 'p*ssed-offness'. ANd perhaps I fired from the hip. Sorry.

Whatever - I had a really nice PM and texts from Drew, and from Gid, and from Hovie, and from Wideboy, and from Lily, and from Pete, and from Lissa, and from Steve Stroller. I don't think I've missed anyone out...

So I'm not complaining. Deffo not.

I don't have any bad feelings, I'm going to re-arrange once I get the time (bit manic at the moment), and I regard the matter as closed.

Only - next time it will go ahead, even if we have a hurricane on the day. Okay??



Ed

thanks for being open mate.Much appreciated

i would like to point out i did not want it cancelled, i said lets wait till the morning........... but i was in the minority
lol


plus we thought it only fair to give a bit of notice, rather than pull out 1 hour before the ride,

thanks ed for the planning, lets hope next time it will go ahead
