..to race downhill!!!!!! i just found out from usa cyling and norba that the two podiums i """"earned"""" at wv and vt nationals have not been granted any points what-so-ever because there weren't sufficient racers in my class.
they said: "Although your races look pretty good, you need to make sure that you have enough competitors to actually give you ranking points (i.e. Snowshoe NMBS)--you need to have at least 2 other competitors besides yourself. [Your Vermont competitor] only has two NORBA races for this year, one of which is a DNF and the other was the race with you, but you were the only competitors so no points are given for that race."
not exactly sure why they don't chose to combine age groups, though i don't know if even that would have provided sufficient number of competitors to warrant points.
so, in following norba's instructions i am asking pleading begging for you all to get your mom's, aunts, grannies, sisters, girlfriends and wives to race downhill so i can earn some points. plus...it makes the podium a whole lot less lonely when there are a few of us up there. so come on out and race!!!!!
