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.

You could always post the mail up for the rest of us to see. That might provide some hilarity

I'd like to finish the series thanks.

Also to answer the RC member mentioned above (as I've had another email) I'm not going to name you as I think that would be seen as a personal attack - which this is not. I'm not suggesting you do FA either - Just pointing out that I've actually done quite a bit - and not been thanked for any of it (bar the points).

I'm done with trying to help. I'm just going to be a rider like everyone else.

Dom...I would be very surprised if you could be banned. Is there a rule that say you can be? Certainly, as a paid up member of New Era the RC can't touch you in that respect. This is all getting very silly.

[twpd]

Remember Dom..you can race almost any bike you want with any club you want elsewhere. But a race series without riders is no kind of race series at all

[dickieducati]

can we have a management buyout? at the end of the day we are the riders and have the bikes so we have the most say.

i for one would like dom to leave the series for good, move me up a place so i'd be happy.

i have no idea whats going on but i see no harm in people trying to help the series along. dom has done more than the vast majority of us put together to promote DD.

Domski

never met you but enjoy your input into this Club whether it be organising your DD events or maybe taking the mickey now and then........stay on bud and don't be ground down!

I think that is an incredible shame, actually Dom. It's the DD site that I always go to for information, as a fan, and there's absolutely nowhere else to get it. The PRONTO is always months behind the actual events and no other information is disseminated about the racing in a way that ordinary mortals like me (i.e. not a DD racer) has access to.

Don't let them grind you down, though. They should be apologising to you.

(keep an eye on my 'member's logo' on here - I'm expecting it to be removed momentarily)

Looking forward to supporting all the DD riders at Donington
