Shame on Team Evergreen

OK, I have come to grips with the fact that Team Evergreen took advantage of many of us this year with their new approach to membership. The scam is simple:

  • To save money and ride the Triple Bypass in July, you need to be a member of Team Evergreen.
  • In the past, you could pay your membership dues as part of the signup for the ride.
  • This year, they changed it so you had to renew or join early - a week before the ride signup occurred.
  • This means that they would secure membership money from you, even if you were not successful in getting registered for the ride.
  • Registration for the ride filled up in less than an hour - lots and lots of folks were left out in the cold.
  • But Team Evergreen secured their dues from us ahead of time. A scam beautiful in its simplicity.

I wrote them expressing my displeasure at this obvious scam. Obviously, they have not written back. I don't expect them to. I expect they are smiling all the way to the bank on this one.

Shame, shame, shame.
