That is bad! Cherry picking has been around forever and I see it’s not getting any better. At 64 I’m done racing but if I was I’d much rather finish 20th in the Pro class than pick up cheap plastic winning the Novice race.

Sadly, we're a dying breed. A bullshit accolade and something to post on the internet to show you're "a winner", however hollow the victory, is what it's all about. I'm 38 and feel like the absolute stereotype of a grumpy old man just typing that, but I stand by it 😂
