Brian I'm on the other side of this, but we're sort of at the same
place.
The riders were encouraged to do whatever it took and make it a good
show for generations by the teams and GBs. Now all of a sudden only the
riders are the nasty ones and the GBs are given a free pass and given
the moral high ground no matter what they do.
I tend to side with the underdog, but I'm pretty much disgusted too.
Gerard being run out in favor of a pro doping, conflict of interest,
Good Ol' Boy, flunky pretty much wrapped up the last bit of respect for
those running the sport, even here.
Gonna keep the kids riding and racing on a local level, and do more
Special Olympics, but as far as USAC Jr. racing is concerned I'm pretty
disgusted. They ran Harnisch off because he put the kids first and was
winning. That didn't work for the other GOB types who have a track
record of wrecking kids, verbally assaulting kids in public, using
whatever it takes to win, and they ran out anyone who challenged their
agenda.
In Europe there are tons of good teams/clubs for kids to ride for,
along with those who are totally dirty. Here we have a FEW who are just
as nasty defending their turf as they are in throwing away every kid
who burns out on their abuse.
Unfortunatlety the abusers have the backing of Colorado as long as
they keep turning out "winners" no matter how many kids they wreck.
I'm proud to say that a whole bunch of the best, most talented kids
that I've seen race have stepped outside the system and are doing
Collegiates while creating healthy, long term lives for themselves.
