Wyatt Earp Posted June 6, 2012 Share So what outside assistance? take a jacket??Sounds a bit like a ruffle under the duvet and an arm pops out from under the bed giving you en effie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azonic Posted June 6, 2012 Share Outside assistance is outside assistance. David and Kevin probably didn't want to look like complainers, but its not about that. The penalty should have been given without David and Kevin having to go and ask for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassasdaindia Posted June 6, 2012 Share rules are rules : if a sprinter holds on to a vehicle up a hill,and we know he is over 1 hr behind the front climbers on the hill and has no way of catching them and then gets penalised,those are the rules and the pro's know the rules wether he has benefited for the next day or not he has benefited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bike Mob Posted June 6, 2012 Share If kevin and David "found" their raincoats lying on the side of the road after they "blew" out of the team cars window I'm sure they would have picked them up and Burry and Christoff or anyone else would not have said anything either. That stage was ridiculous in the wet, and regardless of rules the safety of the riders must overrule. When I say safety that includes putting the health of riders in jeopardy. It was raining at the start...granted... but only later near water point two was it so freezing that a huge number of competitors pulled out due to hypothermia. Elite athletes have extraordinary low fat percentages and can easily fall fate to this. Unless you were there..and riding...I don't think you can pass comment about wether or not Burry needed a jacket, the fact that K&D could not take jackets is another issue altogether. Could you imagine the headlines and disaster for the race if the headline read "Epic Comm denies clothing - Podium teams hospitalized" GLuvsMtb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
