It's official, USAT will not grant me a pro license bc I didn't race in 2011. Was told to race AG. Wonder if they made Lance do that...?

come on Sam, we know Lance has to follow every rule to the letter with WTC.

Technically speaking, Lance was most likely given his Off-Road pro card because he was a pro cyclist. Then from there using the special consideration section, got his on-road pro card due to his off-road results (which are USAT sanctioned).

Plus, Her eligibility should be good for a while, she just has to race once and get within 8% of the winning time and she gets her license back. So she has to race amateur for one race.

This was covered in a thread extrensively when LA got his Pro card. Do a seach. There were requirements in place long before LA applied and LA qualified for a Pro card under the long existing requirements.

True that. I forgot that she simply had to validate her license rather than earn it again. Shouldn't be too much trouble, but seems surprising given that it was supposedly up to the AAC which is usually pretty reasonable.

Well, she did race Wildflower, and wasn't within 8%. I wonder if that had anything to do with it. That being said, I'd give her a pro card if she wanted one, at least temporarily, she was a world champ for goodness sake.

She sounds like an idiot with the Lance reference.
