@GrahamSouthwel3 @andy_loxwood @A_Rejoinder @TaSurrey @simonptuck @chrissieburgess @roadccdave @VeloSouth Velo South cancelled due to the weather. Move along everyone, nothing to see here… @GrahamSouthwel3, do you think they plan to compensate you?

@GrahamSouthwel3 @andy_loxwood @A_Rejoinder @TaSurrey @simonptuck @chrissieburgess @roadccdave @VeloSouth @GrahamSouthwel3, as far as I’m aware, there are no plans for CSM to compensate any business that will lose revenue due to their event. If that’s wrong, please point me to the information that states otherwise - I’ll be interested to read it.

@GrahamSouthwel3 @A_Rejoinder @TaSurrey @simonptuck @chrissieburgess @roadccdave @VeloSouth We get that it’s market forces, but can’t help feeling bulldozed by VS. As cycle event organisers in this part of the world for 25 years too, we’re also aware that, through no fault of our own, we’re now going to have to contend with the local bad feeling stirred up by it too.

[Southern Sportive @cyclosportive]

@GrahamSouthwel3 @A_Rejoinder @TaSurrey @simonptuck @chrissieburgess @roadccdave @VeloSouth Our event has been running at this venue on the same since 2006, and announced for this year before Velo South. We’re looking at our options for next year, but we have a full calendar of other events to fit in with too.

[Southern Sportive @cyclosportive]

@A_Rejoinder @Sharon7770 @Crobert42269287 @LesroyBuckley @Tony_Isted @andy_loxwood @VeloSouth @WSCCNews Thanks for your support. We are disappointed not to have run the event this year, and know that this situation has impacted a number of other events too, not just ours. You can’t drop a 15,000 rider event into the calendar without it affecting a lot of established local events.

We're looking forward to returning to the #pubwithnoname on June 9th, for the awesome Ride with No Name! It's the ultimate pub ride - a superb early evening #MTB finishing at a brilliant country pub, with beer BBQ, live music and even camping!
