Good to know. I'm a bit surprised it continually happens, though. When some promoters seem to have everything down pat, and then these other ones seem to fly by the seat of their pants and then wonder how things get so messed up...

But possibly a lose-lose for everyone with your description of usacycling's involvement, or lack thereof in some crucial areas.
