January 1, 200422 yr you have to read the entire article from the magazine not just what was put online. No, your right, *I* should have, and haven't - but Adam knows what he said,and what it was in response to (and no, I haven't seen that either Just don't shoot the messenger...

January 2, 200422 yr Its a pity you aren't the messenger as your thughts would have more credence, what you say (I think this and this) is just that, your thoughts and probably somewhere wide of the mark.
January 2, 200422 yr Author My comment of having to read the entire article from the mag wasn't in response to you Kevin, just in general to anyone who read the opeing message then went on www.alesport.com to read what was put in the on-line article, which doesn't seem that bad. In the mag it seemed just bitter, for instance he criticizes Lampkin for going for a safe ride in a section instead of the clean, and that was just a strange comment to make. I don't remember anything that Lampkin could have said to tick off Raga except what he said in interview and that was just what he told everyone, the strike was a stupid thing to do and it was just a case of it being the wrong time and place for that to take place, but he was right! It was reported that when Raga and other riders stood in the first section of the spanish opener trying to block Lampkin, Jarvis and the others from walking the section, that was the beginning of all the problems. But Raga seemed very gracious to Lampkin on the podium at the Monza indoor so hopefully it is all behind them. I hope so because Raga has been one of my favorites and it was just very disapointing to me what he said.
January 2, 200422 yr Its a pity you aren't the messenger[snip] Did I say that... Jesus,can't you lot take a 'kin hint!
January 3, 200422 yr Apparently its a big suite room kinda thing so I guess both Subie and me will crash there later, if we are not too drunk to find it. Leave for sheffield at 2 pm guess we will be in the bar from 4ish, my round I think.
January 3, 200422 yr Will be keeping a very close eye on Raga backstage and will report back the truth about him first hand Sunday.
