After much inner struggle and deliberation, I have finally decided to respond to your concern. As you well know, in the day and age that we live , the way the law is written and interpreted, it is just a fact that the criminals have got more protection and rights under the law, than us law abiding cyclists.These climbinal’s disregard for what is right, leaves us cold. To prosecute in terms of the law, will get us nowhere, as time is of the essence, so out of respect for the rights of these violators , we have decided to handle the matter, with wisdom , rather than aggression. At the moment the penalty for violating this rule, will be a deduction of 2 min 35 sec on handicap per ascent.
The rule about regarding the privacy of the landowner and his permission to enter, stands firm, and it should be clear that the violation thereof might put the future of this entire event in jeopardy.
( Should any of the Committee members be present on the climb, appreciate their sincere and honest attempt to exercise some measure of control on the mountain, as well as to do a thorough inspection of the route from time to time before raceday )
Regards and our appreciation for your understanding of this sensitive issue.
Race Director
