RideLondon-Surrey 100 (2015) Anyone?

[LimeBurn]

Mine says cancelled too, same as last year. Looks like a pattern is emerging.

"Cancelled" here too.

What do you see if you have been accepted, as my friend isn't sure?

Should show your details and cost of event at bottom

Last year I got in, I didn't check before and was told I got in because I had offered my fee to charity if I failed (gave a second chance). This year I did the same but didn't get in, checking the options I got a cancelled, although not in the same spot, possibly because they still get my money so don't cancel that bit. I can't remember what the charity donation thing is, but I'll be happy to get that and live with getting one entry across the two. I probably won't do the ballot next year.

OK so you can log in via a smart phone but not a PC

Hmm she says that it just diverts her to a page saying ballot to be drawn on 5th, so I don't know

I wonder whether someone's made a booboo and put the page live before they should have done...

 

[vickster]

@AndyWilliams that is probably the issue, she would have been on a laptop

It's not uncommon for systems to mismatch like this when there is a physical element based off of a digital one. The public facing side tends to grab data from the main database and if they aren't very careful will update first (UCAS did it for years for university entries before they decided to admit it and call it a feature). Generally the assumption is a tiny minority know where to look and it doesn't do sufficient harm to warrant the work it would take to fix.

Wont lie, I'm disappointed but there are plenty of other rides to do. I'm going to give the Dunwich Dynamoa a go, also some others on Audax.

you'll save some serious money there. I just signed up for 4 audaxes, came out cheaper than one RideLondon. The only reason the price is even close is that one of them goes for 40 hours, includes home cooked meals and a room with mattresses, so came to an extortionate £30!

(make sure you book the bus back for DunRun in plenty of time. They sell out, and the trains can only take 7 bikes, so you could end up cycling another 30 miles back to Ipswich)
