Re: AERC completion time rule - feedback wanted

Steph,

I really cant see the point of changing the rule unless mileage points
would be given .  Surely no ride manager would feel badly about giving
the sweat-shirt, coffee-mug or other completion award to someone they 
felt had earned a completion in spite of being over time.  The real 
problem is if two rides are vandalized, some people get lost on 
each ride and therefore end up over time, and manager A "fudges" the times 
so people get completions and points but manager B says "well you've 
certainly earned the award but since you are over time I have to say you 
didn't complete on the form for AERC".
