With regard to not talking, is it really a big ask not to talk for five minutes? I for one find it hard to concentrate when you have loudmouths on the rostrum.

I dont spoil other peoples races by putting them off, so why should they spoil mine?
That's not true I'm afraid. I have spoken to a lot of people about this over the last 12 months and many agree with me. Most choose to stay quiet for an easy life and that's their right, but I felt it needed saying. I know of several clubs (more than 3) where they have a nucleus of approximately 10 regulars who only want to race at club level and the clubs want to accommodate them. Why shouldn't they be allowed?

Regarding the rostrum issue, have guidelines. No shouting, no obscenities, no goading etc etc, but silence isn't necessary.
