I am staggered Poland have had the audacity to start riding in a few weeks time. The problem is that while many consider it just "sport", it really is a lot more than than that these days. Sport (all kinds) is one of the biggest industries worldwide, providing a livelihood for millions of people (competitors, team and organization administration, staff in concessions and marketing, journalists, and many others). For those, it is every bit as essential a business as for individuals in manufacturing, retail, and health. It really isn't as simple as it may first appear. This is why many are are predicting that the aftermath of all this will be just as bad - if not worse - than the actual virus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure everyone will be chomping at the bit to re-enter stadiums either. Sport provides an ideal escape for the working man. I wonder whether they will withdraw sporting events until there is universal support for a vaccine? Edited May 4, 2020 by Robinh88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
