I mean just look at this stupid rule :

 

Any manoeuvre with the intention of pulling a rider's jersey, or pulling or pushing a rider (by either

 

the giver or the recipient of assistance), leaning on another competitor or offering irregular assistance

 

to a rider from another team are all actions likely to give rise to declassification. Repeated

 

offences shall render the riders involved liable to disqualification.

WTF 54 pages of MTB rules !!!!!

 

 

That's ridiculous! MTB rules can be 2 lines:

 

1. Have fun.

2. Don't get killed.

What is interesting about the 45 pages of MTB rules is that it deals with all the disciplines of MTB, and most of it is about what the ORGANISER and OFFICIALS have to do and how the route should be marked (new concept in RSA) and how the start and finish shopuld be laid out ext ext.  Maybe 3 pages in total about how the riders should behave, which normally comes down to hogs rule 2 and "don't hurt the other childern".
