I Think the whole bunch of you are being pathetic... U16 girls of which there most probably were only 5 or 6 should do this as part of their experience they should not be chasing money, on the other hand i do feel it should be the same for U16 boys. These are children they should not be racing for money, you cant work until you are over 16 legally.. They should be maybe incentivised with prizes or vouchers for instance but they should not be trying to milk the cash cow at their young age! Thats why by the time they are 18 they are running around being skanks and the passion for cycling is gone because there really was never one, they just wanted the money and it made riding a bike worth it even with the parental pressure.
