Bwahahahaha, he doesn't need any help from anyone. If you
can't realize that the overwhelming majority here thinks
you're an ignorant ass, that's your problem. If anyone is
taking bets I'll put down $200 on JD on an SS with flat
tires on any terrain at 10 to 1 odds.

Actually I think JD is just a tad worried about this Florida
trail Mainly because it sounds like some kind of BMX
course and he's not sure of what pedals to bring and how to
set the saddle.

oh oh, come out my way. Not only do we have a park like van
dork er dan vork, er, whatever, for a face off, but we also
have some reasonable trails to ride as well (at least more
reasonable than FL).

It'd be *****ing to get the amb crew all signed up for the
Chequamegon, look it up, it's a neat event.

I'm all laughs. Better the back than ears, nose, and
eyebrows. Apparently nature doesn't give us that
choice though.
