Is the correct answer! 😄
Though regarding the “sitting on the bench” bit. If you have the time and inclination to stick the work in I’d have to disagree with that!
In this small little pond of ours… In my humble opinion, you’re only behind Berty as the strongest climber I’ve personally ever raced against around here. No disrespect to anyone else, it is only my opinion… and there are lots of other guys who are good climbers. But you two really stick in my mind as the ones who could dance away up a hill in the right circumstances.
@Peter Salt, I can’t be arsed to come off like a sanctimonious old prick every day of the week! But this is the quote I was picking up on really bud:
“That's 6 riders at pretty much cat limit (
or sandbagging above it). We'll show Div 1 what CCC can do”.
Now I guess I’ve just heard too many people preach high principles when it comes to other people, and then think different principles apply to themselves. I’m not saying thats you, but if it’s ‘all about the team’, then maybe other teams deserve the same. Thats just the way I see things anyway… I can’t be arsed pretending to be some kind of moral compass, because I just do what I feel is right. So you guys can do what you feel is right. And that’s that really.
Regarding the difference between B & C. From what the guys in C have said on here over the last few years. They feel the sandbagging is more compounded in C than B by the fact there are more divisions above C. So by definition there’s more people in those divisions to sh!t on C cat riders by joining their races when they should be in a higher division.
Happy Sunday folks!
That's about it really.
. Nothing wrong with supported trips. Takes a big load off worry for newcomers to multi day riding.
