Ha.
More the lack of official word. And just one member of their committee privately posting on facebook. Not very diligent.

EDIT: Just seen there is an official statement, with no disclosure of the issue. http://www.ultracycling.com/wp_news/?p=967

Something smells to me. Wonder what the story is. Why apply to UMCA if you never intended to do it by their rules.

Hoppo posted on Facebook and a day later the official release was made. I guess Hoppo could've waited but I guess the news shocked him enough to post it. Again, I see no fault in the UMCA's actions.

Didn't one of the first batch of record attempt riders enter it just to promote his bike shop? That was a rumour I heard.

I just like to jab at the CTT.

But this just all seems weird to me. If it's just a tracker. The bikeradar part, weird. If he's serious about UMCA, just start a new attempt now with the infraction fixed.
