Jeff,

I appreciate your honesty and opinion. I would like the list of complaints, only for the purpose of helping the organizers of the Gran Fondo here in San Diego avoid the pitfalls and continue to improve the event. Please send me the off-list info and I will see what I can find out and also see if there is anything I can do to help the improvement process. Thanks for your help and the courage to speak up. Things don't get fixed if we don't address the concerns of the people who come to enjoy the event.

I participated in the Collnago Gran Fondo in Philadelphia last year & would not recommend this event. I will be happy to provide a list of my complaints to anyone who is interested off-list, but suffice it to say that this was an extremely poorly organized event. It should be noted that the while Colnago (of who's bikes I'm a huge fan) is title sponsor of the event, the event's are run by an independent organization. The representative from Colnago with whom I rode the event shared my dissatisfaction and in fact expressed same to the organizers. Perhaps the issues were first year growing pains, but until I hear of marked improvement, I will not be spending my time and cash at these events. Be guided accordingly...
