Guys why attack the poster, clearly Dragons are not known for assisting with warranty claims. Some or let's say a few have had some service from them but a lot have had no service or difficulty with them.

Why do you guys attack the people who said that they had issues with Dragons. They ate posting here because Dragons did not assist them.

It is not just if you hit the car.... Think about this, you and a friend come from the one side riding behind each other, from the other side is 2 runners and a few cyclist....now that car in the way is obstructing their view from both sides..... As both sides change lanes....hmmm...interesting? I am sure you will say that all parties should slow down to a crawl, just so this lazy cop can do his work ?

So you saying it is ok for the Cops to break to rules? Do they also fine those pedestrians to walk when they are not suppose to? Hmmm let me think...nope....

Go with Sram....

Read some replies here and you will see that those used it was almost cause carnage...the people on the moan day in and day out about followintg rules/ road rules etc take pics of riders not doing so and now all of a sudden it is ok?

yes, rules should mention that you can ask..... already there are conflicting stories here, some say on the fastest 5 teams, others say that you can ask? Should it not be spelled out in the rules?

Like you often say, if you dont like the thread don't read it.

Where does it state that? BTW how can going faster make you safer?

Like I said, how do you decide who can do it and who not?

But it is not in the rules....so how does a new team know about this?

then the rules should state that there can be an exception.....why hide this from othere teams who might also want to use this method?

That is what I say, but apparently it you are a TOP team you get to choose which rules you want to listen to.

Why? Who says that they TOP teams can do it? It is not something you / they do often? What makes them a better bag catcher than the next person? Just because they ride faster for longer does not mean that they can catch a bag.

It is always interesting to read the RULES....then on the road you see something, report it only to be told...."that is ok for them" what next? How many other rules do the top teams disregard? Littering also by the looks of things?

Why does the rules not state this then? That you are allowed to do this?

The plot thickens, now it sounds like they are littering also?

Why are they allowed to do this? This is not the TDF! If they want to be treated specially why don't they then have to 2 races....one for the top teams where they can apply their rules.... And another race where the fun riders ride it....see which race gets the most support....then maybe they (the organizers and the top team) will start to realise that without the fun riders there is not really a race. Fun riders bring the exposure to the sponsors....!

Thanks LL So you are not allowed to slip stream, but why do the TOP teams think they are allowed to use the feeding bags? I mean it is clear here Feeding of riders MUST take place in front of their stationary team vehicle, which have to be parked completely of the road. No riders are allowed to have any assistance whatsoever, while still on the road.

Why does there always have to be 2 sets of rules, one for the TOP teams and one for the rest....and why should the funriders drop out off your slipstream? Are they not worthy to be there or is there a rule?

I thought sub 3 only applies to 100km races?

I am not saying 3x anything is wrong....I am saying shoudl the ratio not be 26x39 and not 38? Or is that a shimano thing? 26x39 is designed to work together so you can not run a 26 wit a 42....on a Sram 2x10 Edit: Like I said I wished they made 3x 10 in XX.... Personally I dont like teh Shimano stuff....
