Ridecamp: Re: [RC] Rule Changes

I just looked in the book, it says MORE than 3 days are special event. The way I understand the proposed change is that it would make 3 day rides special events and subject to board approval.  Thus my objection to that change. Rite, Steph??? Annie G.

Uh, when did this change to being in the purvey of the regional
sanctioning director?  If memory serves (and granted I'm not going back
and looking this up), three-day rides have traditionally been special
events like longer multi-days, and have always been under the jurisdiction
of the special sanctioning director--which included board approval for the
first two years....
