Lots of issues.

I have to say that I'm surprised we allow non-members to pre-book (sorry Greg - you'll just have to join!). I guess in the past it hasn't been a problem, and even last season it wasn't. We shouldn't be doing this at all anymore.

Limiting the number of times you can pre-book penalises those with legitimate reasons though, and just puts extra admin loads on Laurie and co, who I agree are doing a great job. I don't mind if people book an early (or late) number because they have to work afterwards or collect the kids or something, but that really should be quite a small number of riders.

I don't think that you can justify giving preference to those who have been members for a longer time either - even though I would probably benefit from such a strategy (not as much as many, obviously).

Frankly we have too many riders now. I don't want to discourage riders from coming along to try out before joining - I did this a couple of times - but the club is about its members, and private entries shouldn't be getting a start at the expense of members.

The other question is - will it get better or worse as the summer comes along? It certainly won't be a problem on rainy nights, but what is our limit for the 25s? And the hilly? I know in the past the 25s have been less well supported - will that still be the case?
