You still can't cite the USCF rule that says NRC races are run under UCi
rules. That's your problem.

All this other stuff you are doing is diversionary tactics. And it's
not working.

You know that someone's talking out their ass when they get corrected
with a cite by Fat Steve.

Equipment and fines.

As I understand it, NRC races use UCI rules for equipment and fines, and
the USAC imposes rules for team limits in NRC races and the designation of
categories, all non UCI races are supposed to use USAC rules, a seemingly
contradiction. Like a 50/50 bar. NRC rules are imposed USAC rules. Non NRC
races like Merco this year allowed a bigger field for spring competition,
and free up NRC fees like UCI fees to be focused on prize money, instead of
increasing the power and control these organizations wield, while leaving
riders walking away with five dollars in prize money.



So quite a mix, you got UCI and non UCI races, NRC and non NRC races with
two sets of overlapping rules, and UCI and non UCI teams riding in these
races, at least there was last year, Lipton, and a few others, national
teams, composite teams, riders without teams, lone rebels and renegades,
Heinz 57, riders in exile on teams foreign to their native countries, and
riders switching teams in mid season, not to mention some riders have one
blue eye and one brown eye. Also, besides the 21 winners and U-Boat
commander Apey stated, this year they had an award for best picks by the
press for the winner, which included a podium for the press winner.

dumbass,

as a schmoebag fan you aren't actually aware how the sport works.

if an organizer is sanctioned by the UCI they are committed to paying
a guaranteed cash purse.

we organized two UCI races last year and the biggest expense
associated with the UCI sanctioning was the cash for prizes. the
actual fees associated with the sanction and UCI officials was picked
up by our governing body - so it's not as if the cash that could've
gone towards prizes was diverted to the UCI.

having a UCI sanction also meant that more top riders would travel to
the event since points and a guaranteed cash purse were up for grabs,
and the media - though they may not know a lot about the sport are
still savvy enough to figure out that a UCI race is "International"
and is a somewhat bigger deal than a local race, so and we had a lot
more publicity than we would've gotten without that sanction.

for a guy who is a supposed champion for the women's side of the sport
you are cluess about how the UCI and the gov. bodies work to develop
less popular disciplines. races like the Montreal world cup and the
tour of PEI wouldn't if economics was the sole determining factor.
