If any one of those people had any belief in their thoughts they would have put the money up themselves. As it was they had no belief in their thoughts so took the cowards way out, if you believe strongly in something you don't hide behind others and you really should have the balls to stand up and be counted. At least Antony has had the balls to stand up, the rest of them are pathetic. if the idea was to make an example of the most dominant rider then in my honest opinion you got the wrong man because there is another champion who dominated his class like no other. For me this was an attack on one rider simple as that. |
well said, totally agree.
its not the protest per se, its the manner of it.
if i thought someone was running an illegal bike and i was bothered enough by it then i would say so, put in a protest and hold my hand up afterwards if i was wrong.
ANY involement from the RC should be totally dismissed. if i understand the prcess correctly, it has absolutely nothing to do with them.
on another note.
the trophies issue has again been a joke.
i will offer my services for next season to take the trophies to each round, or make sure they get there if i cant make it and arrange a time for the presentation of said items at each round.
its obviously an area that needs some help.
