I regret to inform you that the Loose Screw Crew has made the unanimous decision to cancel the 2017 Loose Screw Dual Sport event.
The extreme fire rating of 5 in our area, the ash falling from the sky, and the need to be good event neighbours has forced our hand. In addition to this, the majority of the trails we would be using are in an active fire zone, if not on fire right now.
The reward simply does not outweigh the risk.
We will be back next year with the event next year and look forward to seeing you all again.
With this being said, we need to figure out what to do with all the entry fees. There are some minor sunk costs, but overall the event is not out a large sum of funds.
We have three options for entrants this year in regards to their entry fees. You will be receiving an email in the near future regarding the action you would like us to take. We will need a response from each of you within the timeframe specified or we will determine what to do with the funds on your behalf.
A) roll your entry fee forward for the 2018 event
B) donate your entry fee towards the wildlife efforts and evacuees
C) refund, minus applicable fees
Thank you for your patience in this matter. The decision to cancel the event was not taken lightly by the crew.
Thanks again,
The Loose Screw Crew
