It has very lack-lustre results in my opinion. With more and more folks having to decide if they will pay membership to an already established organization they may participate in, or buy groceries, I think many have seen a decline in memberships. To add another, for a new organization, may be difficult. And it takes the money, to offer those awards. Unless you have some really terrific sponsors. <br /><br />I'm of the "see no benefit" catagory on the poll. I do ride mostly NATRC at this time, and we have a really terrific awards program both nationally, and regionally. And have not renwed my AERC membership yet, as I may only be doing a couple of their rides this year.

Of course the naysayers are going to represent the pool of hardcore, only do it this way types and nothing else, which is fine.<br /><br />Then there are the rest, that is what may prove to be interesting....that niche.<br /><br />Please do cross post the link to anyplace distance minded folks may gather on the web (forums, blogs, message boards, facebook, twitter). I'd like to get a fair accessment of interest from the mileage only crowd, and then share the results.<br /><br />Thanks! ~ E.G.All Who Wanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15811193190492037859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920971397380941204.post-74420741387586592622012-04-28T21:52:24.295-04:002012-04-28T21:52:24.295-04:00That would be a BLAST!
