Re: [RC] [RC] FW: Pulled Vet Cards [was RPR] - Barbara McCrary
For our ride, I need the cards to tabulate
results and minute details. I prepare a results list that gives the
arrival time and recovery time for every rider into every checkpoint.
I print this and send it to every rider who started our ride. I will
cheerfully return the card to any rider who asks for it. Same with BC
score card. We have about one rider out of the usual 75 starters per year
ask for the rider card to be returned to them. AERC does not ask for rider
card at all. I keep them for one year, then discard them.

Cards [was RPR]
I have had my card taken from me twice. And I was not happy
about it. Fortunately, my husband is a very non-confrontational person and
kept me from being too big of an idiot. He took a picture of the ride card
front and back before releasing it to ride management. Viola, I no longer
cared about the actual card since I had the data. One of my cards I had
returned to me, the other is still in never never land. But I don't really
care as the data is safely in hand. Won't help past lost cards, but might be a
good idea for some people for the future.
I
have no problem giving the AERC that data to do with as they wish - but I
paid my money to join AERC and enter the ride, and if I am pulled I would at
least like to take home one piece of paper - or get it back from AERC when
they have complied whatever they are
compiling.
