Now I've seen Saturday's race, and Al Luddington on YouTube, of course I agree 100% with Luddington. On YouTube when Page says, "I'm part of it. It doesn't matter." That's when he loses any claim to "I held my line." It's binary. Page is either "part of" racing for a win or he's holding his line. If it's a parade, then it doesn't matter if Page is 26th in line. But it's a race. A Pro race. Page is supposed to be a "professional racer." All DMG's screw ups, this one they got 100% right.


I think the youtube video is Luddington's version of "they don't pay me enough to ride this bike." Especially after Ulrich's July 17 editorial. How do I know the video was uploaded with DMG approval? Because Ulrich published the link to it.
