THIS IS CRAZY
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. Someone's gone mad. Could it really be true? Nah, can't be. They said it could never happen, but it finally did...
... USA Cycling put out a calendar for the upcoming year.
In October!
Can't tell ya how many times I've had to juggle and replan and straight up cancel my A race plans because the local UCI concession has waited well into the calendar year to post dates.
You say you don't care,
you're never going to nationals.
I say,
it matters.
Going or not.
If these clowns (too harsh?) can start posting their calendar early, all promoters will soon follow suit.
In fact, many already have.
They want our dollars.
We want their experiences and challenges.
The only way to make that exchange work is to allow people to plan.
Which reminds me of my longlostfriend Pete W., an original founder of Quiksilver and member of the Coffee Crew, who said...
The most successful people I know are planning their calendars not 1, not 3, but 5 and 10 years out.
Now, why would do ya think they do that?
