Isn't it about time something was done about qualifing times for events including the NW, TT etc. They need too be raised sooner rather than later, and stop dangerously slow riders from competing.

There are far too many of these rider's about on the international scene, literally just riding round, not racing ! The vast majority of them wouldn't finish in the top three at a decent club event, never mind an international one. The persistantly slow ones who turn out every year, want their licence's down grading to a restricted one.
