    I think I'm correct in saying the UCI are based in Geneva. the Swiss, of course, are not members of the EU, therefore Swiss Francs.
    You've no won the Big Cup since 1902!

    This thread needs a higher level of cynicism.

    It's a dodgy tax haven and all payments are made by Western Union transfer to PMq's personal account.
  • Do they accept payment by Paypal gift?
    I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles

    Why are the fines so small as to be ridiculous anyway?

    I pay you 450,000E.
    Now I want 20E for you knocking that bloke off etc.

    Thanks for the info guys. As mentioned, the amount of the fines does seem a bit small, if the "offence" is
    worth punishing at all.....
