Ridecamp: RE: [RC] What Constitutes a Start?

Try Rule 12 for the basis of a protest. It was definitely
violated in both cases.

says Truman: Using your logic and drawing from this
particular incident
where the
party was seen about five miles into the ride then every RM
in the
country could just set up a point 5 miles down the trail and
let all
those that for whatever reason didn't want to go on pull
from the ride
without any record. If 5 is okay, then why is 10 or 15 or
20?  Are you
telling me you think this is in the letter and/or sprit of
the AERC rules?

No, I think it is a pretty standard procedure to count
anybody that begins
the physical course as a 'starter'. But in order to file a
protest or
grievance, you need something more concrete than 'but this
isn't the way
it's supposed to be done. '

I'm probably getting myself into deep trouble here ... and I
am NOT
promoting the deletion of 'sort of starters' from the
official start list.
But I don't see any rules being broken. Just protocol, and
maybe a 'by
default' policy. I don't see that there is anything concrete
to be
protested.
