Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

*not* triathlon based?

The only other sport I have any idea about involves odd shaped balls, but you can ask.

Ok

I was at track last night, in effect my first group racing since my crash in April. There is a guy there who is known as CHOPPER for the way he rides into people.( I should say chopper is BIG and is very good on the track) Sadly I have some uncomfortable history with him and last night on my first week back he deliberately jammed me off the track on multiple occasions. Now I think he targeted me and was trying to force me off(has happened before my crash so I was more relaxed about it) so I reported it. End result was I dropped down to the B Race to save myself.

I want to enjoy safe racing.

Now my options.

1. have it out with him and risk a bit situation or worse even more issues on the track
2. just take it and try to give a wide berth, hard to do on a track when I need to be where I am

3. drop down to the B league
4. quit

The issue - if I ride B I may upset people as I did one race last night and I ripped everyones legs off whereas in the A race I am having my legs ripped off.

Without sounding arrogant I will have a change to win EVERY race in the B league but I will not find it as satisfying as even scraping a podium in the A league BUT I don't want that to come at the risk of a big crash.

Ideas ?
