RE: OBRA Wheels: A suggestion

We used every wheel in the 1/2/3 field today. some of the other fields

didn't have any flats at all. I will call Roger tomorrow and see how he felt

the program ran. Less than 1/3 of the riders donated so collections were

pretty meager.

Lets see how money collection and wheel support went at the Cherry Pie

today.

Once know how we (racers) are going to be paying for the program, I am sure

the wise and hardworking obra people will get some 10 speed Campy and

Shimano

wheels. Of course, creative ideas for acquiring these wheels would be the

best

suggestions.



Wheels support was working hard today and looked like they did a great job.

Obra rocks!!!

 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?
