Well TP,

It especially amazes me from people who should know better who start making comments about people discussing their own race series.

their own race series seems to imply that the participants are the only stakeholders and that it doesn't belong to the club anymore?

Nope, you've completely grabbed the wrong end of the stick.

At no point was anything I said to the exclusion of the wider club membership. The series DOES belong to riders, because they are club members the same as everyone else. I never said that it doesn't belong to anyone else in the club nor do I mean to infer that. Nor am I inferring that members outside the series shouldn't share their opinion on the series. I think you're reading between the lines too much.

My point is some people have a pop and a dig at people for discussing the series on the message board for no valid reason. The Desmo Due forum is here for that VERY reason. And if other club members don't like it they should stay out of the DD forum and concentrate on what they do like about the message board/club and stop bloody whining like .... things that whine a lot !

In my humble opinion.


Fair enough TP, I apologise if I've clambered on the old hobby horse...

I hope my only contribution prior to your message (my post about bending rules being human nature) didn't come across as whining? If it did, it wasn't meant to, and it certainly wasn't a pop at any individual. I was just trying to share that in my experience of motorsport (which I've been involved in, in some small way or another, for most of my adult life) some people will always try bending the rules sooner or later and it's usually in the second or third season of a new class being launched.
