I assume next months event is cancelled due to covid, yet cannot find any confirmation.

Hatoere had sent an email earlier in the year that they were taking it over from ASG, but nothing since...

 

Anyone have any info?

Hi.

Has anyone who has sent proof of their 2020 entry to Hatoere actually received a response yet?

Ive sent several emails but no confirmation or response.

 

Much like trying to phone the post office or city council...

I have sent proof and received nothing to date, not even recognition that they have received my proof either... so am not holding out much hope that our entry being carried forward will be honoured.

Sent several email and no response. I am going ahead anyway, they will have to remove me from the race because I will ride with my proof of 2020 payment and emails I've sent as my race number.

Oom Hendrik is a good guy and does a HELL of a lot for cycling.

 

I won't be too worried though............

 

I really hope this event will go ahead.

Yes, Agreed. The HAtoere events I have attended have always been top notch. I'm really surprised that there has been no response/confirmation for months now.

Does anyone have further news on this event in general? I'm entered but have received no updates, no marketing emails etc. so getting a bit worried about whether the event will even happen. Would appreciate if anyone has any news. Thanks.

I have received nothing, emailed them, sent them proof of payment when it was with ASG before HAtoere took it over.  Still no reply.

I don't expect to see my money back or whether the event will happen.  As you say there has been zero comms or marketing of the event.

Just got hold of Hendrik who appears to be the organiser. Spoke to him telephonically. He said that, as things stand now, the race is definitely going ahead. I asked what the factors are that could lead to a cancellation with the only thing being an escalation of COVID that leads to a change in regulations. From an organisational perspective, according to him, everything is going fine and there should be updated info / emails coming out soon.

Holding thumbs for this one.

I am guessing still no news from HAtoere. I emailed them as well but no response.

From their FB page published on Monday ...

 

"Good evening Cyclist Friends, our announcement comes as no surprise after the tighter lock down restrictions announced by President Ramaphosa this evening.

Unfortunately the hosting of our Jock cycling event is postponed until further notice.  We will announce the new date, which will still be during 2021, as soon as possible.

All confirmed and paid entries for the Jock will remain active at this stage.

Please be assured that we have done our level best to ensure that the event take place, however the national lock down restrictions has had the final determination.

We apologise for the inconvenience and disappointment.

Be safe and take care."
