A year or so ago.
Personally I wanted to carry on with Friday Pod days because I knew it was popular with a core of the club.
No one wanted to organise it and anyway the losses had become too high.
The committee had a vote on it, a poll IIRC, and about four people at the time wanted a Pod day, AS WELL as track, and the others no, just track.
Then I phoned Miller and he had what seemed like a solution, to see if we could book 40 out of the 100 limit on a test and tune day. They don't have limited runs do they? That's the whole point of it being limited to 100 runners.
So, no risk to the club if it rains. Minimal losses. No need to organise anything (so we thought!)
There was a Sunday one in September. Pod said Yes to 40 tickets.
All seemed good.
But Pod made a mess. The didn't reserve the 40 places, apparently they thought we wouldn't turn up, or something, and didn't want to lose money. Which wasn't far off!
No mention of the VW day.
And so we expected the people who are so vocal in this thread and other previous thread would be happy and go there. Apart from 9, they didn't.
