Interesting ideas going on here. What
has changed in the past two years that has made the sanctioning process out of
date? Perhaps the increase in multi-day rides? I know that there
were more and more being sanctioned until the old guideline of "only one
multi-day ride every 3 weeks anywhere in the entire country" was obsolete
several years ago. I hope that has gone by the wayside. Multi-day
rides are wonderful, and there simply is not enough room on the calendar for the
number there now are if the "one every 3 weeks" concept were still in
place. And that left no room at all for new
ones.
Oh Absolutly, I agree
completly with this. I was thinking primairily of the scheduling of rides
within a region. But your outline is rite on. The entire sanctioning
process is out of date. Annie
This is more than one individual should be responsible for. The
regional sanctioning director or appointee should be part of the process,
but not the sole judge.
