The BPRC should get a petition of all the racers together and send that off to the UIM. How can we NOT have the Old Fox racing CESA in the 50th?

How old are you Mike? 
Of course it would be a travesty for him not to race.

Coming up to 71 and proud of it but I don't know what that has to do with the post!! I have reached the age where I have earned the right to act and speak how I like and frankly if people don't like it they can go jump etc etc. You have to keep people on their toes otherwise things get boring. -

We could certainly start an online petition here.
Would a few hundred signatures make any difference to the UIM though? I don't know.

Whilst Argentina or even the RYA would be prepared to grant him a licence - FIM will not write the letter to back it up.
There has been an awful lot of work going on in the background to help resolve this situation.
Fingers crossed for a positive outcome -
