Time for me to leave?

Following yet another email (there have been many) of positive suggestions and useful information to a RC member - I got told off for not emailing the proper DD email address (like it made a difference) - yes that's right!

Not only that, but the RC member didn't like the idea that someone other than the RC tried to do something positive with DD, especially when they didn't think of it, AND, as I failed to run the idea of the rider profiles past this person before organising it all - I'm satans love child.

Anyway, I'm putting the rider profiles on hold.

We wouldn't want the commentator knowing what he's talking about now would we.

Also I just like to say a few apologies...

Sorry for promoting the DesmoDue series whenever possible.
Sorry for setting up the DD Forum, to take the bitching off this forum.
Sorry for setting up the DD Racer website to provide lots of really useful info on the series (which isn't on here!).
Sorry for getting the series (and club) on Wikipedia - and several riders.
Sorry for sorting out the Official Points spreadsheet (saving the RC the hassle)
Sorry for the publicity I have gotten the club through newspaper reports and BBC features.
Sorry for encouraging people to join the club and DesmoDue - fact.
Sorry for putting people off DesmoDue (apparently).
Sorry for listing the DSC as a 'Series Sponsor' on the DD Racer website and not as "the club that run it."

...and last of all, I'm sorry for driving a wedge between the club and riders (RC quote!).

I'm sorry.

DD could be so good as well. It's a shame. A big shame.

Dom. I love you

In a brotherly way that is. Rise above it - this is what happens with all bike clubs of all persuasions and is why I will never be a paid up member again if I can help it. The politics and in-fighting gets to you in the end...personally if I was a member of the RC then I'd be all too happy to let you do the grafting

I wasn't going to bother offering any more ideas/contacts/experience after a previous email over the weekend, but then something came up today and I thought it could really benefit the series in a big way, so I emailed the RC and all I get back is more c***.

Personality clash I think, but hey, if it makes the RC happy to have me out of their hair at the expense of the series, then so be it.

I will just turn up and race from now on.

I look forward to seeing the series flourish next year, just like it has this.

I disagree.............there is nothing to name and shame....maybe two opposing views is all.....................

we should be looking to promote the DD in a positive light not dragging the DSC board into the depths of a visordown post by naming and shaming.?...

For all the growing pains the DD is an amazing series and has acheived a huge amount in its short life..and thats thanks to ALL involved..........

we cant all agree and we all have opinions on how and what is best for the DD.......................but we should all agree we want the DD to be the best it can be........................

can we go race yet cos surely thats the important thing.>?
