Powerwatts rider replacement thread

Considering there are 12 PW classes this spring, it's likely that there will be a few occasions when someone can't make it. I'm setting up this thread specifically so that whoever can't make it is able to connect with someone who wants to take their place.

- If you are one of the 8 riders signed up and you cannot make it to a class, post it here as early as possible.
- If you are someone who wants to drop in on a class then keep checking this thread. As soon as there is an available spot, get in touch with the rider who isn't going and arrange to "buy" their spot from them.
- The going rate is $20/class but it's up to the buyer/seller of the spot to settle on a price.

For example (hypothetical):
I am one of the riders signed up for the Powerwatts class. I can't make it next monday because my pro team is flying me to spain for a training camp. I post in this thread that I can't make it. Bobby, who wants to try out the classes, sees my post and pm's me about it. I sell my spot to Bobby and confirm with him that he has my spot. Bobby then goes to the monday class in my place and gets stronger. Done.

Boo urns. I've been waiting since last week to see if my condition would improve but I think I may need to put my spot for tonight up. My immune system is totally trashed, so if someone wants to try a powerwatts class tonight for $20 send me an e-mail (caitlin.friesen@mail.mcgill.ca).

I will be missing next week's class, the 22nd of Feb, because i'll be out of town for the break. So if someone wants to take that class, (one week from today) let me know.

Hey Will, unless I'm mistaken Ben's back in town for this Monday, so you should try and grab Peter's instead.

Monday march 29, many riders will be absent:
ben Adler
Dave Gruber
Peter Thornhill

No spots should be left empty, please arrange something with them to take their spot, or even do so afterwards if you're not able to reach them. Make sure to post something here if you plan on coming so that we don't end up with too many riders.

i'll take Peter's spot since our legs are pretty much the same length, if no one objects, or if no one has already arranged something with someone.

At what time do you guys usually arrive, and i guess all i will need to bring are pedals?

I take it by the silence that means no, no one took my spot?

the problem is in determining who took "your" spot, since there were three replacement riders, but no provisions have been made yet to reimburse the other two.

well if there really were 3 riders, then we could just do it by where everyone sat.

I sat 3rd bike from the left, with peter on my right and dave on my left
