I love the part where PM talks about being "democratically elected". I'm not sure how it is in other countries, but in the US, the federation was effectively purchased for Johnson by Weisel. How many of us voted for Johnson? Zero.
UScycling has to go also. Clean it out. They are corrupt from top to the bottom.

hmmm it's funny how in history lot's dictators, caudillo's, liars, cheats etc began to believe their own BS.
Certainly wouldn't have Pat as a caudillo as he is controlled by the puppet master but self deluded - yes.

If Cycling USA is that sort of animal can Greg Lemond count on their support for nomination as President of the UCI if McQuaid is ousted?

Without national federation nomination a person has no valid candidature for UCI President.

Also, on the death, resignation or dismissal of the UCI President the UCI Constitution provides that the Vice-President shall fill the position until the next Congress meeting. (Article 63)

The Congress only convenes annually unless an extraordinary Congress is convened.

Couple of hurdles to be considered to get Greg into the Pat's chair.

No - its fixed, which is why Pat suggested he go down the "democratic" route.

This is probably the reason for the CCN approach there is no way through for someone like Lemonde in the UCI 'Democratic" process.

Change Cycling Now will be accomplished when Italians will not cheer on the Giro filled with doped up idiots, when the French will not cheer for the Tour, when the Belgians stop cheering for Flanders: etc etc.

In other words: people don't give a peeeeeeep...

Untill that time Phat Pat and those idiots will keep on their jobs.

I read what they were on about and happen to think if you are going to invite some cancer stick smoking twitter fan to be a voice in the issues ,,,,,and then think that a fan like myself will climb aboard the "cranks for the willing" then you obviously think I'm some type of person who asks for autographs. WRONG.

You do realise they know they can't speak on behalf of fans or represent fans don't you? They are only a there as a channel to pass the message on. Perhaps you should check out their website before jumping to conclusions.

how in the? do you know what I was on about in the first place?

You have your own opinion which is based on something I can't really describe here because of the rules.

Who cares what story you linked and gave about Skinz flints. I was on about the skinz promoting cyclist who happen to be corrupt. You happen to like them skinz and obviously biased by your own personal opinions. So all about what I was on about was described in the post above.

You should, thats who.
You offered your opinions based on some false facts - that you still hold the same opinion even though I corrected those facts is entirely up to you.
That you wish to get angry about that or to attempt to make it personal is quite frankly amusing.

No I was only wanted to say and I still say that Skinz made money off of the cycling which he wants to now change. I find that a bit well HIPPO Kritical.

No need for you to worry about my opinions.

Where is angry?

Sure if you say so.

I have been to the interwebs site CCN. That is how I know they have a cancer stick smoking tweeter on the official attendees list. Somehow the profile for that person describes them as the Social Media Mover. That was what I was talking about. I did not feel comfortable about the impression that this person was influential with the fan's voice. That was all.

The cycling fans voice web site you link is totally different than the web site I was referring to originally that happen to be Change Cycling Now. So how you go off on sending me over to another website I have no idea.
