That is an absolute joke. And BC & CTT wonder why nobody takes them seriously. Hilarious! But I guess they're only really on par with ASO.
Remind me again why you ride for an english team? I don't see many of your rides below the border, never mind your races.
None of the clubs about here have many racers. No serious time trialists and nobody certainly who travels to even Scottish national events. So I joined a race team instead when my former coach was starting it up. Where they are registered or "based" was of no relevance to me.
I do vast majority of training on my own or the lads I do ride with are not aligned to any club up here either anyway. So being on a local north of Scotland club makes absolutely no sense for me. I'd probably actually be best off being unattached but then there are other silly rules that make that a nuisance as well.
