Re: [RC] [AERC-Members] Competition - sharp pennyI am one of those that prefer the smaller ride and will haul past the crowded ride to get to the smaller ride if need be. I hate crowded anything and will avoid being one of the masses if at all possible. The smaller rides have shorter VC's, you can park closer to the VC, you don't have to wait line 45 mins to get registered (even when you have pre-registered by mail..aaarrrgh), you don't have to wait an hour in line for food and then be told they just ran out, please wait another 20 min while they cook up somemore, ride management is less harried and the over all atmosphere is just a bit more personal and friendly. If there is already one ride that is a *name* ride and is well attended, I'm all for offering another ride that same weekend in that same region. As big as these regions are I can see it hurting the name ride that much and some people that wouldn't have gone to the ride because of distance might go to a ride that was closer to them. Penny In fact there are people that might not go to a huge ride just because it is huge that would go to a smaller ride the same weekend. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- =- -= Discussion List Archives: http://www.goldhill.com/members/index.html =- -= Subscribe/Unsubscribe: mailto: AERCMembersForum-moderator@xxxxxxxxxxxx =- -= Rules of Usage: http://www.goldhill.com/members/index.html =- -= Terms of Usage & Liability: http://www.goldhill.com/members/liability.html =- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
