Should I Renew My Slowtwitch Premium Membership?

Post #1 of 32 (5029 views)

A few days ago I received an e-mail that it is time to renew my premium membership to Slowtwitch. While I can afford the $20.00 yearly fee I am not really sure that it is worth it. The special discounts are more for someone who buys more often than me, special forums for premium member is nice but I dont look at it that much. How do other premium members feel, will you renew your membership when it is time?

Thanks.

Once, I was fast. But I got over it.

Will definitely renew. If only for the free stay in Kona.

I heard that if you display your ST Premium Membership sticker on your bike, the WTC allows you to draft without penalty. It's one of the benefits of your renewal.

Take a short break from ST and read my blog:

Yes I will renew all my usernames' premium memberships to Slowtwitch.

Find out what it is in life that you don't do well, then don't
do that thing.

I worked around the premium membership by starting my own slowtwitch site. So far, we only have one member, but the posts are awesome with very little disagreement.

If admin privileges are added allowing me to delete the posts of anyone that flames me, I'm in. Otherwise, I think I'll pass this year.

So much confusion surrounding this program perhaps Slowman can clarify. I was told that the membership would give me the ability to get paid as 7th place finisher at just about any IM event. In addition, I was under the impression that if we eclipsed 20,000 memberships this year, we could buy the additional 15 slots to top up the Kona professional woman's field.

It's definitely worth it, IMO, for the year's supply of turtle wax if nothing else.

"I was told that the membership would give me the ability to get paid as 7th place finisher at just about any IM event."

actually, every premium member gets paid 3rd place money, at IM Lake Placid.

I renewed my membership the first of the year and I still haven't received the extra 20 watts on my bike yet. Do I need to recalibrate my powertap?

You can't get a slow twitch tattoo unless you are a premium member.

I renewed, because of the cool integration with Strava and Zwift. Except that means I needed to renew my Strava premium membership. I'm having a hard time keeping track of all of those. I'm afraid I'll miss one and then no one will be able to see my ST-posting KOMs.
