You were not disagreeing with my statement - others did. Here it was again: "In racing (on topic) anything done in front of and allowed by the officials - is not cheating (unless of course, they were paid off)." Those were really not race specific referees but UCI. My parenthetical bit was about exactly that. Corrupt officials - well another thing. I don't believe the officials in USAC cycling are anything but honest. Maybe wrong sometimes, but honest.
To the OP - you can't cheat when those (honest ones) in authority have the facts and determine you are not.
