Hard numbers aside, there is something more nebulous for racing to combat: the “ick” factor.
Typically reserved for romantic relationships that go sour, the ick is the feeling when something cool turns to cringe. For a sport trying to attract a younger generation, that’s a big issue.
The ‘ick’ factor? Racing battles lower Cup crowds, ratings – but online punting is up

We all know that funny feeling of filthiness, of ickiness. It a feeling we call the prick of conscience when we make a compromise that we have doubts about.

Busload of Books bringing inspiration to the classroom one stop at a time - Mitchell Republic

The family is on their way to visit schools in all 50 states to promote reading, creativity and collaboration.
The trip revolves around the author and illustrator and their desire to spread the word about reading, to increase awareness of the challenges faced by America’s public schools as well as to take part in an expansive research project to measure how such visits by creators to the classroom impact the schools, teachers and their students. The family is traveling in a bus that has been colorfully painted and decked out to serve as both a promotional billboard and a miniature home for the six of them.
