  1. How can there be so MANY belligerent idiots in the world?

    Thanks for demonstrating, once again, just what mountain
    bikers are like.

    It is amazing that someone with so much education can have
    such a narrow and very hypocritical view of the world. I
    guess we should really thank the military for creating the
    internet so you have an outlet for your incredibly
    ignorant ideas.

    Good luck with your mission and enjoy the frustration.

    There you go again spewing lies and jumping to conclusions.
    The way I read that message, he's clearly a hiker who finds
    the drivel on your web site threatening to his recreational
    pleasures. Nothing in his message indicates he rides bikes.
    Plus, he's merely speaking the truth......

    Once again, MV = Idiot

    well no [censored] he's trolling. I never thought of that. every
    once in a while when the rest of the posts can't hold my
    attention I politely point out how wrong he is. the rest of
    the time, I ignore him like everybody else does.
