things move on

We are just back from a meeting with some guys of San Carlo Terme, and we are happy to announce that the ALBERTA HOTEL will give us plenty of support, hosting a lot of singlespeeders and their family.

The ALBERTA is an hystoric hotel build with passion and hard work by a whole family that lives in San Carlo Terme.
A good place to stay, in the centre of the small town, a spectacular view on the city of Massa, from the hills to the seaside.

Appena tornati da un meeting con alcuni abitanti di San Carlo Terme possiamo annunciarvi che l'HOTEL ALBERTA ci darà pieno appoggio nell'ospitare quanti più singlespeeders possibile.

L'HOTEL ALBERTA è un albergo storico di San Carlo, costruito con passione e duro lavoro da una famiglia che ha sempre vissuto nel paese.
L'albergo è praticamente nel centro del paese, e vi offrirà un panorama spettacolare su tutta la città di Massa, dai piedi delle colline fino al mare.

FICK OFF!

All the promoters from past Worlds complain about those who come after them - been there done that - been there happened to me!
When it comes to selling out I am guilty as sin if you look back on SSWC2004 I ran in Berlin
Things grow and change and that is always a bad thing for those who were part of it over the years.
Still think SSWC is a great thing
The reason why the continent is slightly pissed off about SSWC2012 is that the decider was a joke!
Happened before the event even started far away from the actual venue and three people who look like the judges from Albania Got Talent decided who does the best tap dancing??? FICK OFF !!!
Italy has an exciting scene and great people who run it and they worked their butts of to host SSWC the problem is if you don't have a governing body you can't just tell them you want to do it - no you need to tap dance! Did I say FICK OFF yet?
So when we heard the news that South Africa got elected for being great dancers our first reaction on the Continent was: FICK OFF we do SSWC2012.
I can't see a reason why we should respect the tap dance decider. Actually I think who ever wants to run an SSWC should just put it on and see if he finds an audience.
Let the people decide - OCCUPY SSWC! So 8-9 of September see you in Massa Italy - because we can!
