I sure don't see any negative comments in Heidi's post. The rules are 
the rules. Rider chose to enter rides - therefore they agree to abide by 
the rules. I haven't seen any great misuse on one corner of the US and 
Heidi indicates she doesn't see in the opposite corner of the US of the 
RO pull code. Looking at the number of RO pulls compaired to the number 
of starts, the RO pulls are not out of line.

If riders don't want to ride by AERC rules - then they probably should 
find another outlet for their riding. If that's negative - so be it.
