Right result by the sound of it - anything else could be the finish of club racing.

Its always bad when someone gets seriously injured, but unfortunately accidental clashing with other bikes / riders is part of racing - accidents happen, people get seriously hurt but we need to accept it or not take part.

Well, depending on clarification as to whether there could be an appeal, this is good news and I'm sure we all agree it's really the only sane decision.

Hopefully the end of a lot of stress for those involved.

I really hope that this is the end of this nonsensical claim and that common sense (for once) has prevailed. I can only imagine the relief that Jorge must be feeling now; shame that it's caused him to close down his business in the UK...

Indeed. And take out insurances to cover the 'what ifs' that go with the sport.

Which reminds me, Ill add CICA to the links area
