Apparently I must have hit a sore spot... No offense was intended. Here is
what I said:

My statement doesn't mean that the fear factor is the only reason that
people stop road racing. There are obviously an infinite number of reasons.
Pregnancy sounds like a good one, although some mothers are also road
racers. I've also had male friends who stopped racing after the birth of a
child (as well as others who continued to race).
All I can say is that the statement must have been taken out of context. If
so, I appologize for any confusion added on my part.
