Actually, in
a self-policing sport, if Maggie has seen this happen she should have
reported it to Ride Management... for a DQ. If Maggie WAS the ride
manager, then she should have enforced a DQ. If it was reported to
RM and nothing was done, then a protest can be filed. If the rider
is DQ'd and doesn't agree, they can then protest the DQ. That's the
procedures. That's how we are going to find out if Radio
communication is OK within the AERC (us) or not. If a DQ for
radio communication is upheld then it will be up to RM and other riders to
report violations of Rule 6, subsection k... and thus enforce the ruling.
