If you registered (or think you registered) for Freezing Saddles and want to know if you made it in, below is a list (alphabetical by forum name) of the riders assigned to team. This way, you’ll know if rides starting tomorrow will be Freezing Saddles rides even if you don’t know what team you’re on. And maybe it will give y’all some added incentive to come to the HH on January 10th to find out what team you’re on. Some caveats:

1. Two riders aren’t listed because their forum names are email addresses. As a matter of policy for reasons of privacy, we don’t publish anyone’s email address or their actual name without their permission. So said persons are being contacted to find out if it’s OK to list their email address or if they want to change their forum names.

2. Consider this a provisional list. Everyone will have one more wicket to navigate to be official. Yes, another test of your ability to follow directions. Team captains will invite their team members to join the team via Strava after the HH. YOU HAVE TO DO THAT! If you don’t (after a reasonable grace period … usually measured by a few days), then your team captain will probably contact me asking for a substitute. If you get substituted, you’ll get put at the back of the wait list queue.

3. For those of y’all who registered but aren’t on a team, you may get added to a team at a later date (see #2 above). If that happens, your miles retroactive to January 1st will count.

Please feel free to PM or email me the_penas at Yahoo dot com if you have any questions.

Updated to include the people in #1 above + withdrawals and new players.

Nadine – You’re welcome!

Everyone who registered by the deadline, i.e., followed cvcalhoun’s instructions, is on a team. And actually, a few people are late registrants because a couple people decided to drop out. Anyone else who late registered is on the wait list and in the queue as a replacement.

Some of us have had issues with the forum software as WELL as the registration software. I will be happy to be on Team Slacker this year if that is how things fall out – we do have a Team Slacker, don’t we? Or Team Chopped Liver, either way:p

It’s called “Friends of BAFS” this year. But if you choose to call it Slackers, I won’t tell.

What issues did you have with the registration software? I’d heard of issues getting Freezing Saddles to read your miles, but not with the registration form itself.

Not officially this year, but I’m sure there are plenty of reindeer games in our future

If you thought you registered for Freezing Saddles but don’t see your name on the list, please contact cvcalhoun ASAP. I’m guessing (but can’t be absolutely 100 percent sure) the reason is because your email address wasn’t confirmed. You can still register and be put in the wait list queue as a substitute. If history is any indicator, there will be people who drop out and we’ll need substitutes.

I guess I am out this year. I tried (twice) to register. Apparently without success. I’d encourage the organizers to review the registration page for next year.

See yall out on the road.

What date did you try to register? And what happened?

We had some people who tried to register before there was a submit button. We also had people who tried to register when the page to authorize Freezing Saddles was down. While we posted a workaround as many places on the forum as we could think of, I think some people missed that.

I also warned people (on the forum, on the registration form, and on the confirmation page after submitting) that if you did not receive an email asking you to click on a link to confirm your email, you needed to email me. And with every single person who emailed me at the time, I found that their registration form had gone through (and I was able to confirm their email). So I’m surprised that anyone had trouble with the registration form, as opposed to the other aspects described above.

Sounds like someone is volunteering to take over the registration duties for next year.

Seriously, the instructions were very clear, very detailed, and very specific. I am curious to know what the issue was.

Just before Christmas. Not sure the exact date. I think the recaptcha was defective somehow because I would hit submit, then get the recaptcha challenge, then it would spin forever. I never got a link in e-mail at all.

You can still register and be put on the wait list. There’s a good chance (but can’t promise) that you’ll get assigned to a team if enough people drop out (and people always do). And if I have enough people on the wait list after all the teams are official, i.e., everyone has signed up for their team on Strava, I am thinking about creating another team comprised of the people on the wait list. Again, I can’t promise that but we’ll see what happens.

Please submit a registration, hope for the best, and ride everyday in the meantime! BAFS is too fun to let a technical glitch stand in the way

I am on the list here, but cannot find myself anywhere in the Freezingsaddles website, I’m neither in the individual leaderboard nor under “People”. I have reauthorized Strava via link sent by Chuck to allow my private info to be seen by FS. However, when I click “Login” on the far right side of FS website, it takes me to the Strava/FS Authorization dialog. When I click “Authorize”, it give me the following:

Authorization Results
Hi, HF.

So you are a Strava athlete, we get that. Unfortunately, one of these two things is true:

you are not registered with any of the configured Freezing Saddles teams, or
you did not give Strava permission for us to “View your complete Strava profile”. Without that, we can’t see what clubs you belong to.
If the latter is true, try to login again and grant us permission to “View your complete Strava profile”.

Somthin’ ain’t right…

FYI, my Strava name is different from my forum name, FWIW.

This is a known issue. (We’ve got only 36 people on the leaderboard at the moment, not including me.) Obscurerichard and his team are working on it. @ImaCynic 184535 wrote:
