• Not this again.

    That's why there are rules. To even the competition so that it's more athlete vs. athlete and not "who thought of a clever way to gain an advantage".

  • I understand you need rules however, see these long distance things are very not athlete against athlete there are many other variants. Part of what makes it so interesting... to me at least.

  • What are they if not rider vs. rider? If I have a command centre at home given me constant weather updates, sending my navigation advice, competitor info, researching local knowledge then it's no longer rider vs. rider. The rules are made limit outside interference so that it IS rider vs. rider. Read the rules, understand why they are in place.
