I'm not surprise the UCI supported this, since they're hell bend on keep the technology from the turn of the century without those modern plastic codswallop, anyhow I for one fully support the idea of a no-radio rules for a day or two, it's too easy to depend on radio to get information on where and when to attack.
Quite like how we got so dependent on mobile phone, before mobile phone were readily available for the public, you'd simply organised almost a day ahead to meet your friends by the post office, or just go home after 10 minutes of waiting.
Now we're so dependent on mobile phone, it reach to the point that we find it hopeless to meet friends and such without a mobile phone, or 'handy' as the german said.
