What I choose to do in the privacy of my own home is my business! Call the ACLU! Defend my right to
wear a leather bra and beat my bike!

That's not because he's a man, it's because he's a poser.

More women than men moan about physical exertion - it's a proven scientific fact.

Both. Other stuff too. It's a scientific fact that women are generally better psycho-emotionally
equipped for efficient and frequent moaning than blokes. Not that I'm moaning about it, being a
bloke and all.

Hmm, must be a Northwest thing. Its like that around here, too. The bad thing about it is, there's
really no place to take newbies.

Send them to the Eastern US, there are a lot of "beginner" riders getting by there.

Remember Jim from our NW Epic last summer? He takes out newbies all the time, and in his quiet,
grinning, grandfatherly way, he beats the sh$t out of them, and they love it. At least they come
back excited for more. I did a write-up on a poor sap a while back who filletted himself open pretty
good during a ride with Jim.

It's just that we only have 2 or 3 decent trails "easy" enough to break a newbie in on. Then it's
into the frying pan.
