  • I can understand both points of view.

    Race should be kept pure and honourable for sure, but she has sponsors to keep happy and us lot - I can't be the only one that enjoys films of races? I thought her crew had done a reasonable job of removing themselves from interfering with the race.

  • Yeah, I think the transparency that Rue displayed was quite reassuring and she made a real effort to stay out of Lael's way and not intervene in any way. That's much more respectable than other film crews etc. Even in the original Ride the Divide film, the protagonist racer Mike Dion bivvied with the film crew, but there were only 16 racers and no keyboard warriors, so it wasn't an issue (plus he scratched).

  • and Jay Petervary was filmed during one of his TD races? What's good for the geese, isn't good for the gander, it seems. No wonder Salsa dropped him.
