12/02/2009 20:55:43 Jennie Just in case any of you haven't read your emails, Paul sent this today... [quote]Unfortunately I’ve just been told by MSV that they have no choice but to cancel our track day at Bedford this coming Saturday. There is still a significant amount of snow on the track and more importantly run off areas. There is just nowhere for this snow to go.. the ground is sodden, as well as still frozen. Manpower is not an issue, just nowhere to put the snow and the threat of more to come. In addition if anyones been watching the weather forecast this afternoon more freezing temperatures and snow are forecast for later today and tonight. Although this is a huge disappointment – to us as well, the admin this will create will be a nightmare! We are glad they have taken the decision early, before you/we start travelling and still time to cancel hotels. I will send another email tonight detailing the options, at the [B]very least[/B] we will offer a replacement day. We are looking at the options this afternoon and I promise an email will be sent tonight. Please accept my apologies for this, this is now our 4th or 5th cancellation in 6 years so although it’s the 2nd one this year it is a rare occurrence. [COLOR=black]Regards [/COLOR][B][COLOR=black]Paul Golding[/COLOR][/B][/quote] Obviously disappointing but good to know a couple of days in advance. See you all at the rematch!!

12/02/2009 21:11:36 Tim Guy That's a shame. Good that Paul made the call before the day though.

12/02/2009 22:13:03 Jennie Just replaced it with Oulton Park next Saturday instead - go on Tim, you know you want to join us... ;)

12/02/2009 22:19:45 chrisburton84 With Beford being cancelled due to the now boring news of snow messing up everything, has anybody that was going to Beford booked them selves in to Oulton Park the week after?

12/02/2009 22:22:21 Gary&BVZ Lets get real ...Oulton Park next Saturday is impossible for some of us .... It is too soon to make arrangements and for some of us on the South coast it will be like travelling to the North Pole ...Or further ... Time for a refund or another Track Day at Bedford later in the year ....

12/02/2009 22:50:30 calypsoelise Hi Just to add to the post by Jennifer, a 2nd email was sent this evening offering a number of options, including a FULL REFUND. This was sent to everyone, as was the first email. If it didn't come through please contact me at [email]paul@lotus-on-track.com[/email] - it's worthwhile checking spam folders etc just in case.
