Even so, it's a pity that Mud-Club will be associated with larger groups as our stickers are clearly visable.With luck, the concerned members will read this will think 'ok, it's time to change how we think about going laning', which would be the best outcome (well, that and removing some of the more contentious vids).
I'll stand by Pux and I stand by what I say also. As a former chairman of the Green Lane Association (note: 'former'), I come from a point of some experience and passion. I carry no real authority, but I want to point out how much I care about these issues.There are a number of glaring holes I can pick in the arguements presented but that's not what I want to focus on. A clear issue has been raised and the folk concerned now have a golden oppotunity to come forward and say 'you're right, what we did wasn't the best, therefore we can do things differently'. The biggest pity is some of the vids in the collection are exemplory, it's just that some sadly, are not. The collection of posted vids affect us all - some do it in a positive way, others don't.You know, in this world folk are permitted to make honest mistakes, for the occasional thing not to go right - honest ignorance is not a crime. The mark of the person is in how they handle that event subsequently. So I'll ask person to person - please can you have a think about how you act and what you do when laning - and what you post on the world wide web after the event. It'll ensure that Joe Public doens't associate the kind of behaviours some of the vids show to either the Club, or to laners as a whole. As an aside, as Mud-Club members, we've all agreed to abide by the Clubs rules and Greenlaning Code of Conduct. We've all read the small print and ticked the box. ;)
