I think the whole purpose of the wheels is to get you back to the car. I
really don't know anyone that has received a wheel change and got back on
with the peleton to finish in the points. At Mt Hood Classic, I had to wait
10 minutes for a wheel and I was lucky to get it to finish the race. That's
way better than putting in a tube (if you have one) or walking back to your
car in your cleats.

I don't want to sound negative, but I ride Campy 10-speed and I'm sure
there
are many more riders out there that ride Campy. Why should we have to pay
for Shimano wheels? Also, are there going to be 2 follow cars for every
category at every race? so everyone gets a fair shot at these wheels.
Just constructive comments, I do think the wheels are a great idea:)

Quite the positive response to the new wheel program from OBRA! To make
things a little easier for the entire season how about if a $1.00
surcharge
be attached to the entry fees for the races where these wheels and
services
are provided. Seems to me that it would be easier to not "forget" this
valuable service as the season wears on. The OBRA staff then would be
able
to disperse the funds much easier in my humble opinion.
What say ye of the masses?
