• Speedy delete. Hoax - unless the author can rapidly create some refs. -- RHaworth 17:10, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: While I wholeheartedly agree with that assessment, unfortunately I don't think there is a WP:CSD for hoaxes. Leuko 17:18, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete; rather silly hoax. Take out Jostev Cross-Otley too, while we're at it. WarpstarRider 18:12, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

• Weak keep for the sport, based on the not-very serious BBC page & an apparent multi year existence;

Strong Delete for the one on the person, which is pure self-indugence.DGG 00:22, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
