sorry! I am afraid that my French language skills are severly atrophied. They do not get much use, verbal or written, nowadays. My memory of the time I spent in Tours studying is still sharp though. And, remember the armpit hair thing that came up in another thread. When I lived there it wasn't an urban legend.
Back on bandits a minute. As a risk manager, the real issue is one of liability. As noted earlier, a bandit has not signed a waiver. So even the mitigating factor of having a signed waiver is not there. Although they are in the race "illegally" you just gotta' know that if they are injured they will contend that they had some kind of right to expect a safe course. And (this is the USA after all) there will be a lawsuit! A lifetime ban might be too harsh. But maybe a lifetime ban where you could earn back your elegibility through hours (and I mean a lot of hours) of race vouluneering might be a solution. Or am I just being too simplistic?
