To be fair to Alfie like all other riders he is free to ask for what he likes and its the promotions job to decide if he's worth that amount. There's a stand off waiting to happen, promotions will have to start saying no but i respect that riders shouldn't have to leave home knowing they will make a big loss.

A sensible post on bsf, you be careful. 

I would like to add that It shouldn't be any of our business either or how any promotion make their money , be it selling badges or robbing banks.

No it isn’t sensible, the control board should set out a pay structure and enforce it and riders either take it or leave it, if an amateur rider can’t make it pay that’s tough, it’s amatuer, until we get away from entitlement for riders we will never move forward, nobody wanted to listen when I tried to cut costs for riders, well fine you made your bed don’t complain when the springs stick in your back . I don’t care how any promotion make their money or how much money they haven’t got all I care is the future of the sport and at the moment it doesn’t have one

This league should be as low cost as possible  entry level to the sport( a paying hobby at this level) ,riders should not be expected to have all the "bells and whistles " equipment  of the upper leagues .  Decent reliable and affordable bikes within set parameters  should be mandatory, so riders  can improve their skills and not win or progress due to deep pockets .
