Description

Got a bunch of messages about this after Forrest got 5th. Everyone is the race was a Cat 1 cyclist, which is the requirement. Is it fair? Some thoughts.

00:00 Welcome

01:15 10th wheel to 5th

02:30 Pre-reg list

04:00 Qualifications to race Pro Nats

06:07 What is USA Cycling Domestic Elite?

07:55 Who should be at Amateur Road Nationals?

08:38 Dieter Drake idea; Pro teams of 3 only??

09:35 What about being pro because they have "more support"?

10:15 What about riders that are getting paid? Are they pro?

12:25 What about support riders in US Pro BUT could win at Amateurs? Do they have to pick one or the other?

13:35 One pro cannot beat three great cat 1's

14:00 Don't shit on Amateur Nats

15:50 The field will never be perfectly even. FIGURE IT OUT.

16:03 Amateur Nats is THE ONE. Haven't been able to crack that one ;-/

Good luck with the rest of your season!
