All I'm saying is "Give it a break"....flame wars don't do anybody any
good and you're roasting pretty hard. Sure, Ride-A-Lot roasted you a
couple times, who cares! That's who he is...too bad you're petty enough
to see it as a gauntlet and start a flame war over it.
Personally, I don't care if your video shows 100 canadians getting off
their bikes and walking it....I can find 100 americans, brits or
whatever and find them terrain that'd get the same reaction...My point
is don't say "Canadians!! Can't handle rock gardens!!" because you're
insulting a whole country and I know a hell of a lot of canadians up
here who would think nothing of those rock gardens...
Besides, I saw the video and I saw a lot of guys on hard tails walking
it...but I also noted that you didn't say "Hardtailers!!! Can't handle
rock gardens!!"
end of momentary rant...
