I received an email cancellation where I had to specifically ask for the refund, otherwise it would be donated to the village hall.
It’s not a lot on its own but I’ve entered one every 2 or 3 weeks until July and had already written off next weeks Petworth ride. It soon adds up. I’ll probably write them all off as I’m saving a lot of other expense at the moment.

I'll give some feedback as an Organiser. My own event on April 18th is postponed.
- For the longer / better supported events such as Dean's 1000 there are quite a few sunk costs such as bookings for Village Halls, route checking, etc. For me just running a 200, I've only put around £75 into the running of the event so far, with additional costs being postponed along with the event.
- Refunds are generally available in this instance however most orgs are doing this less paypal fees. Paypal has recently changed their T&Cs so the fees are still taken by them.
- Most organisers are looking to reschedule there event for later in the year or next, where entry is passed on. I realise dates won't work in all cases.

Also, are they offering refunds for already purchased calender event entries?
