    Works for me, though it now redirects to the British Cycling site.

    Hi Guys

    We are transfering the site onto a new platform and have hit a technical snag. Should be sorted in the next day or so, sorry about this

    There only seems to be a partial list of entrants. I have entered and previously my entry was listed, but not now!.
    Before the site migrated, there was a list of online entries and a separate list of postal entries. I'm wondering if only the postal entries are displayed.
    Can someone from the organisers reassure me. I don't want all my training to go to waste!

    The website seems to be down again!
  • Don't know why but i always start to get a bit distrustful of events when the website keeps changing host or disappearing.

    The website has had quite an overhaul, but does now have a full list of online and postal entries, which I update regularly.

    As we get nearer the date there is one thing that I would like to sort though. I am still not allowed on the Cyclosport UK forums, despite asking Mark Harding personally to let me on. He knows I'm not interested in all the politics going on, but still bans me (would like to be told why?).

    So can anyone who dares (who feels they will not be removed from the site) please advise people on there that I'm not allowed on. I worry that questions asked about the White Rose going un-answered by myself will be seen as me not caring, which is far from the truth.

    Thanks and see you in June.

    Further to the above, a friend has just asked innocently why I'm not allowed on and his post has been removed.

    Mark Harding even tries to give the impression I don't want to post and is clearly misleading people.

    Be careful, or you may get barred too.

    I can't even log on, as the new website asks for info I don't have.

    The new Cyclosport website is sending me 'there's been a reply to your post' emails, about 15 a day, even though I've never subscribed to any threads on there.

    I've set my spam filter to block them, am tempted to do the same with any emails from there, as they're almost all sponsors advertising...

    It provides a useful sportives list, but...

    BTW, good to hear from you Derek. All the best.

    The site still seems to be down!

    Booboo, I'm delighted to see that you are still organizing the event.
    I'm looking forward to the suffering again. :?
    I found it my hardest event of last year.

    Sorry about this everyone.

    We are undertaking a complete re-vamp of the BC Yorkshire website that has meant porting the old links acoss to it, the White Rose link is causing a few problems that we need to resolve. Our website Project Manager Matt Payne is currently to be seen sporting a Walkie Talkie at the Worlds and so in truth it may be early next week before the problem is resolved. In the meantime the entries are all logged and the data base is unaffected..

    I can however confirm that the link to our other Sportive the Ryedale Rumble www.ryedalerumble.co.uk is fully functioning and there is still plenty of scope for entering.


    Regards

    Hi folks

    We are still struggling with the www.whiteroseclassic.co.uk URL but you can access the site via the link from www.bcyorkshire.co.uk

    Hi Bob

    Sorry to contact you through this forum, I couldn’t find your contact details on the web site.

    I can't see my name (Sean Turner), and Club mate Chris Westerman on the entry list. You previously confirmed our postal entries on this forum, but we don’t seem to have made the official list.

    Regards

    Sean.

    I'm not on the list either, although have been listed previously.

    ...but...look at the top of the list and it says 'entered online' - must be a list of online entries only and not (yet, hopefully !) include postal entries.
