I had 2 or 3 items that COULD be considered a violation, but, it would be a matter of interpretation.Show me in the rules, not the text of boogahboogah's thoughts on the subject. I should have been more specific.

And this is where the teams got a real unfair advantage. The rider could take off west on the second leg and ride for six hours before others are even able to leave. Then he gets a phone call telling him where to go.It's hardly a data entry exercise when it takes Jim Owen 6+ hours to plan his route and others more than 8.
If you don't understand the ethos about what the ride is about then you will never understand. You don't need a set of rules to tell you to do everything it’s people like this that take the fun out of an event for their own insula pathetic self flagellation. It's surreptitious bullshit and if you cannot see it you are brain dead in my view.Show me in the rules, not the text of boogahboogah's thoughts on the subject. I should have been more specific.
Nice. You forgot to call me a cheater though.If you don't understand the ethos about what the ride is about then you will never understand.

Sorry if you have taken this so personally Chris. At the end of the day I suggest your current belief and that of others that now seem to seep in with these events promoting the need to win at any cost may require a rule change. I guess the good thing is there will be no ambiguity when you read the new rules.Nice.

Next time I roll up to a bonus, I'll just disregard the instructions and do what I think the instructions should have said. That should work.
It's not a contest of speed. Usually, a race is won by the person who completes the course in the shortest amount of time. This isn't a set course. In this event, if you and I take the exact same course and pick up the exact same bonii and you do it in 23 hours and I do it in 24, you don't win...we tie.One more thing, if its not a race, how come the person with the most points wins?
:blink:Personally I couldn't care less who wins and how many points they get. The only thing that matters is that they all get home safe and sound and get to tell their kids and grandkids about it.

Thanks for the apology. I actually cried a little. That's two shots you have taken at me btw.Sorry if you have taken this so personally Chris.

Thug hands Chris a tissue.... :good: ... :cray: ....yeah I did read it, didn't see anything different? Maybe it's in the translation being downunder and all?Thanks for the apology.
