Many would argue that motorcycle racing (and golf) are not "sports". No room for cheating.
I've spent most of my adult life involved in Enduros and Cross Country events both as a racer and then as an official. I've also been involved over the years helping shape the rulebook for these events. Pretty much On Any Sunday during the riding season there was a need to make a ruling on someone who is looking for a competitive edge that may be a little bit outside the original intention of a rule. So if we are to use the standard set in the above quote about it is not a sport if there is no room for "cheating" then I can attest to the fact the motorcycling racing is indeed a sport. If you need further proof check on YouTube for the SX Round 3 incident invovling Chad Reed and Trey Canard and then read the 20 pages on the Supercross thread on ADV Rider where the Reed Haters and the Reed Lovers tear each other apart. Very entertaining reading.
In golf there is an expectation for the player to self-report an infraction of the rules therefore all Patriots and their fans should be banned from the links.
Wait...I thought the Golden Rule was, we can't say Fred is wrong. Isn't there a picture of 'Fitter demonstrating that somewhere?
That's not the Golden Rule, that is FJR Forum Rule #11
