View Full Version : RBR Gods
RBR Gods
Ok, since the theme has been stirred up, I have always wondered too. Who are the RBR gods? What is
the pecking order? Can anyone provide a list of the top five? At least you can get an idea about
rank and status. It's not personal, just out of pure interest? Does knowledge fit into it? Then
where would Maso and Coggan fit? Or is it based on who is most active with best data?
Assuming that we know who runs the pack, who are the subordinate gods after supreme ruler?
My guess and its just speculation...
2. Pap
3. Carl
4. Tritonrider
5. Bikerecker
But if pure knowledge is priority then Sundquist, Maso and Coggan would be right up there. There are
quite a few others but who would they be?

Maso ehh? Nope. Sundquist is way high and Coggan is good (but boring).
Connelly should be high too.
Triton needs to chuck AOL for something real, other than that, then hell yes.
For shear negativism, anti-Americanism you'd have to put j.v. Sluis and Lafferty near the top of
that special list.
Bart used to be really informative but something happened there about a year ago. I think he
burned out.

Dumbass -
You've got this all wrong, starting with #1.
The most influential person on this newsgroup is Heather Halvorson, because she
1) is female and
2) posts the most porn links.

She also has a lot of chutzpah, and handles testosterone laden rbr quite well.
People are probably more interested in reading her posts than anyone else's, but I don't know that
that makes her the most influential person on this NG.
Everyone loves heather (no capitalization in deference to her preference).

"deference to her preference" is an awfully good line. I'm going to remember that. I'll use it, if I
ever end up single again.

I like Heather but she's too scatalogical for my tastes.

Not everyone is so perceptive.

I'm only just starting to learn who the players are. I haven't really followed racing too
much the past 15 years or so; Carl is the only regular poster whose name I know
independently. I remember him as national track team, pursuiter IIRC; I also notice that,
like the other top racers I've met, he doesn't need to BS anyone. It was the perpetual cat
IIIs that would razz the non-racers for having hairy legs. I have an image of Benjo hangin
with Bartali, Bobet and the other greats. He's obviously educated and doesn't need to insult
anyone. Henry and Tom are trying hard to make people think they're adolescent, but they're
too mature and can't cut it. I've never seen so many guys use "asswipe" and "dumbass" as
terms of endearment.

He got married. Actually, it's Jeff's fault. CN is doing all the reporting now.

The only one you cite who belongs on the list is:
> 3. Carl
The list of others deserving consideration is very short. OMC, Laudien, Lieswyn, Sharon Peters, and
anyone named Carney. The lesser dieties woud be JFT X000, Schmantz, The BenSharp 4, and Mike "check
out my other autions" Jones. Of course, should Andrew ever abandon his quest to become the next
Tiger Woods and return to bicycle racing, all bets are off.

Immaturity is a large part of being a bike racer, if it wasn't there would be no incentive.

You mean the competitive impulse is immature? How judgemental! ;-)
