very fair points.
and you know, i agree with you on the list of what's wrong with local stage races. This guy cares about women's racing. This guy cares about the local community. This guy is a genuinely nice guy, and i actually like his events. I would much prefer to do his races than the guy who decided not to do a women's field (ToWC mentioned in previous post). But as such, i think i'll be doing the latter anyway...

winning and losing are irrelevant here. i'm perfectly fine being "that guy" and not win.
