Renners fileren massaal eigen vakbond: 'Het is 2018, niet 1990' en 'Wout for president'

There will be an election for a new president of OUR riders union @cpacycling but ???????????????????????????????? ???????? ???????? delegates all vote on behalf of their riders. They don’t have a poll/vote, they just decide - and if you’re from ???????????????????????????????? ???????? ???????? you CANNOT vote.

Every rider must have the right to vote, no matter their nationality or location. That means we all get to decide who represents us.

Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others.

Winston S. Churchill
He means the @cpacycling right?
We didn’t want to drag the CPA through the mud, but since they disenfranchised us we will remind you, Your funds are our money, and we know it #letusvote

The only way to vote for the representative for our union is to be in Insbruck for the world champs in person. This is 2018 not 1990, get with the times @cpacycling ????????

And if you’re French, Italian, Spanish, Swiss, Portuguese or American you CANNOT vote. Got to wonder who this union actually represents.

Maybe we have to stand up and start OUR own riders union where all riders can vote to choose their representative.

Interesting date chosen by @cpacycling for the election. The day after the Elite men’s TT meaning any riders not doing the RR will be heading home, and being the Thursday the majority of the RR peloton will be travelling incl myself meaning I will not make the vote.

Please @cpacycling Show us that you listen to the people you represent by letting every rider vote. This is the 21st century and an electronic vote is less open to corruption than gathering a few people in a room and raising hands.

I’d say this voting system is better than yours @cpacycling
