On the other side, I can appreciate the numbers they're fighting, but why not just have 35+/50+/60+ if they're going to eliminate a race. Why strand anyone out there with 40/50/60? I don't see the point. Our state TT champ is over 40, so he can race with them. Who else are they scared of?
That 35 to 50 gap is pretty extreme. I realize the numbers drop off the larger the age break, but trying to cover a 15 yr gap is hard on an old man, lol.
It's pretty much academic for me. It just determines how long I have company and until a race would turn into a training ride witrh a entry fee, lol.
