This assumption that MT has “no interest” in a DSC event/series is somewhat insulting to the hours upon hours that has been put into the series already buy the MT. This series would not exist if it were not for the MT (or the riders taking part). Yes the MT has no VESTED interest in making decisions that could be seen as improving their own positions in a race of series, - and that is exactly why the series HAS to have MT input. If the MT had no interest the series would have been passed to New Era (or the like) a month ago.
And if it is a plan to vote in riders reps who are to oppose every decision or question the RC will find itself once again ham strung; there will then be no 2007 DSC DD (IMO).
A big thank you to all of the riders who replied to recent questions/ e-mails.
