@everythingscomingupmilhouse: this is very interesting and I think you for posting it. It has spurred me to do a bit of googling because I like to be informed. I’m not saying you’re wrong, but first I’m pretty sure there is no such thing as “British law”, rather in England and Wales we have “English law”. I guess in Scotland they have Scottish law - not sure. There is no mention in anything I can find on the internet about the age of consent ever being 21. You’re right that it’s not a blanket 16 but according to what I’ve read it never gets higher than 18 and that’s for a power imbalance as we are possibly talking about here. I also don’t follow BK or this girl. Never heard of her to be honest. I also have a 16 year old daughter myself and probably wouldn’t want her dating her manager or a grown ass man like this. The reason I got into this debate is to point out the prejudice in the comments. No one would dare state that BK is too ethnic or too Jewish or whatever, but apparently too old is fine. Do these bigots have any idea how difficult it is to find a job, for example, when one is 50 years old? The amount of age based prejudice we see in western society is frankly unacceptable and yet it goes unnoticed and unpunished. I am for freedom also. The right of two people who are legally classed as adults to pursue a relationship of any kind with whomever they like. And yet, we are presented with comments using the work “ick” which I’ve personally never come across until reading this thread, but I can guess what it means and the type of person who uses it (probably someone who hasn’t learned to construct full sentences yet). The fact is that in life and relationships a lot of weird shit goes on. There comes a point when we have to accept that our children are no longer children and they have to be left to fend for themselves and be free to make decisions they will later regret. We’ve all done it. It is no surprise that with attitudes like the ones in these comments that there are so many man babies around these days still living at home getting cooked for and having their mothers wash their clothes. All I would say is, BK is a human over 18. The girl is a human over 18. Both classed as adults as far as I can see (but please do post a link to specific info on the purported 21 thing if it’s true). No one deserves to be picked apart in the comments like this! Just keep your opinions to yourself at least until you have enough experience of life to pass qualified comment. Thanks in advance.

@pathopkins: it’s shown me your intelligence, not showed. You’re basically a Nazi. Age Nazi and relationship Nazi. I doubt you’ve ever even had a relationship of any kind with a female other than your mother with views like yours. Two people choosing to do what they want is not inappropriate. If the relationship goes sour she can quit the team and get a job. They’re basically living the holiday life anyway. She gets to help him spend his trust fund and spend a few years travelling. It’s not an internship at the WHO for cripes sake.

@pathopkins: why do you keep mentioning age? Age discrimination is illegal and also a form of prejudice. I think overt prejudice of this kind is against the Pinkbike acceptable use policy. Don’t be surprised if you get banned and I have to say I think you deserve it.

@wburnes: precisely. The words grooming and ick both stink in this context. I suspect some chaps commenting are just jealous that Bernard didn’t choose them!

@pathopkins: it seems we are justifying prejudice based on age, and justifying rude personal comments about a private relationship between consenting adults. How do we know who made a move on whom?

@bmxbackground69: would it be major ick if he was 19 and she was 19?

@pathopkins: not your business. No crime committed as far as I can see.

The legal age in Japan is 13. She’s almost double the legal age in Japan. Stop being ageist.

Dawid & Szymon Godziek Sign with Specialized Bicycles
Specialized is literally the best bike company. If I could get sponsored by Specialized, Shimano, and Fox (with support from Emirates, Corona, Aberlour and Mercedes) I would literally cream my pants.

@maddog13: I bet he had to buy a bike to use and the Dissent was on sale at £1999 so he went for it.
