UCI President Pat McQuaid Interview Pt 5 - What is the future of the UCI?
The calls for McQuaid to resign are getting louder, but will he? Subscribe to GCN: //gcn.eu/gcnsubs In this last of our interviews with the head of the ...
Have enjoyed all these interviews, thanks for uploading............and
honestly, He has had the immpossible job! and has done ....well, OK! dont
know about another term, but do not think the American cycling public
should be quite so blind in their vilification of McQuaid. Hes just a bloke
who loves cycling and can you imagine the daily poitical busllhit in that
Organisation.
When he says international, I wonder if the US will ever get a world tour
race. It would be nice to see the Amgen tour on the pro circuit, but the
overlap with the Giro probably negates that from happening unless the Tour
of California changes dates.
I don't really know the man but McQuaid seems pretty reasonable. It takes
time to make changes when you are part of a big organization and everybody
has their own opinions and concerns.
Nice piece here, GCN. Did he elaborate on how the professional cycling
council has made changes to this cycling season to accommodate Katusha as a
19th team?
So his first objective – globalisation – he's got a goodish record – the
promotion and marketing have been good. The second objective – turning a
doping culture into an anti-doping culture – well, passport aside, that's
been done by the riders, ex-riders, journalists, etc – not really Pat
MacQuaid. And there's the rub – UCI has two functions, promotion and
policing, and one often contradicts the other. UCI has a structural
conflict of interests. Time to separate the two.
Sorry to repeat myself a bit here but this still looks like one of those
“please submit your questions first” type interviews, with all the tricky
bits - weird relationship with Armstrong, Verbruggen, resignations,
mentioning Irish journalists, ...etc – vetted out before hand. How
independent is GCN? Because this interview looks a little PR-ish. Unless
there is a beefy part 4? :-)
My main concern with the globalisation of cycling and in particular the
World Tour is the death of the Domestique. They don't earn as many as World
Tour points as the other riders they so faithfully support, hence when it
comes to World Tour team selection time if the team they're in is in the
firing line, hence they are. Teams need to earn World Tour points, not
riders.
The Armstrong / aggressive doping questions have been done to death and he
never answers them. He's not going to say "yeah UCI conspired with
Armstrong". I'd rather hear his thoughts to get a feel for what he is
trying to do with cycling as pres. of the UCI. Other journos will tell me
all about his wrong doings as they are not tied to the UCI.
The anti doping passport but the shame about cycling is that dopers are
still allowed to ride after their ban which is, in my opinion, not a big
enough deterrent for them to stop. Why not just ban them for life and it
will slowly eek out of the sport for good.
I know it will be tempting but please don't go to a subscription paid for
model. The channel is great and I am very happy to see sponsors messages
via interviews with riders, managers etc which should help everyone? Catch
you tomorrow!
