His attitude is not what this sport needs, but we could use his money. I feel sorry for the riders on the team as this will all end badly one day and their names will be tarnished as having worked with this guy. Rock Racing and Mr. Ball is just bad for cycling.

Ball is a complete a hole. He fails to grasp the most basic concept of competive cycling and yet justifies his ignorance every time he opens his mouth. The cycling world needs to just say no the f'er....... I seen and heard a lot in the bike industry over many many years. Ball is a complete a hole.
