>>1112103>As a sidebar to this: what do any of you really care? I highly doubt any of you are pro riders on the world tour, so what the UCI, CPA, and USAC are doing doesn't affect you at all.While I 100% on the first part. This is not true. If it wasn't for the UCI I could buy a bike like Andean at a much lower price. Same goes for recumbents. Some decisions made by the UCI are fine, but there are a host of those that are downright retarded. Overall, UCI's regulatory power bleeds into the real world, and thus influences what stuff I can buy at which price bracket.
