To the English guy from sonic boom team. We had a few words after about how I was riding corners and I was a complete jerk to you. In hindsight you had a very valid point and I am sorry. I should thank you because you gave some good advice. You were right and I was for sure in the wrong and I am embarassed by the way I was acting. Please accept my apology
Did I miss something or did a rider from a UCI Pro Continental team win this race? How did he get in? Europcar is a Pro Continental team, will Voekler be on the line for the Morgul RR? Could draw some crowds!
Don't get me wrong I love Danny I just thought Pro Conti guys weren't even allowed to enter non-UCI races. It really sucks for them and they consistently complain about it so what happened here?
I could be wrong but I believe that the rule says UCI pros can’t enter non sanctioned races. The Louisville crit is a USAC sanctioned event. However, races like the Firecracker 50 MTB race is not a USAC race and is off limits to UCI pros.
They really got the pros by their balls this year. Who is the problem here really, the cops or the people making the rules? Gets kind of gray. USAC could just look away right. Pro cycling is so stained with them that it could be good to have some seperation
For example, in no case should an exception be granted to a cycling event that is organised by a person or entity who regularly organises cycling events.
ie if your event competes with our event, our riders can't ride in your event.
