I should also point out that Arthur Klap is Chairman of the BikeNZ board.

But was that before or after. Just cos I buy a lotto ticket, doesn't mean that I work there, or that I've won

Surely his being Chairman implies a level of support for the structure?

Your Lotto analogy makes no sense...

Or the desire to change the structure cos it's just not working fully.
BikeNZ ran the NZ team at the worlds (however good or bad) but they didn't run the worlds.

That is true - now I get the Lotto ticket thing. :blush:

You're not as stupid as you look... :crazy:

A lot of people get fooled by that.
Many people seem genuinely surprised when I come up with something clever

Regardless, the Worlds was a cracker event. That's really all I wanted to say.

Giving BikeNZ credit is just like giving bob the bulider credit is all

I agree. Bob the Builder is the MAN. That bicycle lane he had to build while Spud was on the talkie-walkie can't have been easy...AND he helped Luigi make all those pizzas at the same time! :thumbsup:

Sweet, will be great for NZ mountainbiking and a good excuse for a holiday.

I had my place to stay sorted months ago! The Canberra off road club have done a fantastic job - the tracks will be mint and hopefully the weather will be on a good year (snow wouldn't be the best...)
