Regarding the cancellation of a meeting... you cannot make that decision in the morning as there are a lot of people like me that would need to be leaving at around 5.30am in the morning - therefore in situations like this the decision should be officially made the night before!. I think its unfair of the organisers to expect many people to drive 2 hours to get there just to be told when we get there that the meetings off, and then having to drive 2 hours back home again!

Attendance is not mandatory - but if you're not coming, at least have the decency to cancel so we're not hassled in the morning.
It is fine saying "you should cancel the night before..." it isn't that easy. I have 78 people still entered for tomorrow, the fact they are entered shows me they have a willingness to compete. I am in talks with the guys who run the club, they are experienced people and know their track and surrounding area better than any of us. I have to trust their thoughts.
At the moment, they are not giving me any reason to believe cancellation is necessary, a forecast is a forecast, it is not gospel. If we do feel that safety becomes an issue, we will make the necessary call, until then, make your own choice and don't criticise anyone else trying to do the right thing for the good of the series and its competitors.
