Cancell(ara)isms

Nope, no Fabian Cancellara going on here because my race was cancelled today. Cancelled. I actually would have been happy about it, except that I showed up! I mean who wants to do a crit in the rain. But, even more than that, who wants to show up for a CANCELLED CRIT in the rain.

I may have been a touch flippant in my response, observe:
You are probably getting a ton of these e-mails saying what the heck? I showed up with my bike dripping rain water to race, and there was no race. Fortunately, with the magic of modern technology, I was able to look it up on my phone and see that the race was cancelled. Another magical piece of modern technology would have enabled you to SEND OUT AN EMAIL TO ALL OF YOUR RIDERS. So, with that in mind, a critique for next year: if you cancel, alert everyone. And, when am I going to get my refund!
