Re: [RC] [RC] Rules - Nancy Mitts
I think it is time to interject that these directors & people who are making
the decisions were not born into the job, nor appointed for life. They were
put in those positions by the riders in their region. (Or membership at
large.) If you don't like the job they're doing, vote them out. If you don't
like a ride manager's rides, don't support them. But be prepared to do the
job yourself, or find someone you approve of to do it.

My concern is that any rule that we already have, or that we may have in
the future, is not set up in a way that can leave a door open for abuse by
a sanctioning director, or anyone in position of decision making authority,
for their own personal gain. That we the riders and paying members, are
the ultimate decision maker as to what rides we want to do, and that we
have the opportunity to freely make that decision. With which rides, Ride
Managers, or Vets we ride. Preferably with out veiled threats or pitiful
attempts of intimidation, which will never work. At least not with me. In
an earlier post I suggested that sanctioning directors should not be RM's.
I do understand that may not be very practical, given the size of the BOD
now. And that most RM's and RD's are people of integrity. However, it is
the appearance of so much impropriority and conflict of interest, and
infighting, that has led not only myself but others, to feel that certain
things need to be questioned. And question we should! Anyone that takes
issue with routing out the facts of an issue, or being questioned about
their motives and possible conflicts of interest is highly suspect in my
book. So my message to everyone on the current BOD is that if you think
you may not like the questions that will come later, think about how you
conduct yourself now. I appreciate all the hard work, and can only imagine
the difficulty of your job. Good Luck next week.
