Right you MTB'ing girlies with rilly rilly wide handlebars - it makes you
look butch as hell but rather silly too.

Don't do it.

Leave it to us tough blokes who can actually pull of that look, OK?

Thanks.

I use wide bars on all my bikes. I'm no butch and I don't look like one
either. Why don't you go shove off and ride your bike instead of complaining
about what other people ride...

But, but, _YOU_ were the person I had foremost in mind when I posted this,
Carla!

OK, soon as you grow back that sense of humour you seem to have so brutally
hacked off ',;~P```

Sometimes the bars are so wide they can't even turn their bikes. I can't
begin to tell you how many times I've had to rescue girls who went straight
off the side of singletrack because their arms are pointed straight out to
the sides and they could only turn like 1 degree, as soon as they hit a 2
degree turn or more they can't make the turn.

Please, heed the Rimster, I'm tired of saving girls with wide-bar syndrome.

What he said. Every spring it's the same old thing on the trails around
here; perfumed bark piles on the ground below any tree closer than a couple
feet from the trails. It's gotten epidemic, I tells ya!

No really, tell us. How many girls have you had to save?

Gee, so thats what that stuff is . . . perfumed bark.

When I crashed last week, and landed on one of those piles, it seemed a
little softer than bark, and I have to say the perfume did not smell all
that nice.

I was cracking up looking at those pictures. I saw a homeless dude riding
down the street the other day on an old beater with turned-up drop bars just
like in the photos. Only rather than performing stunts, he had a green
plastic trash bag filled with his worldly possessions dangling from each
side. Despite the man's obvious tragic existence, all I could focus on was
how fooked up those bars looked turned upside down. Maybe he was a bicycle
acrobat that couldn't handle the pressure of circus life?

PC disclaimer: Not that I was laughing at the homeless dude, he wasn't all
that interesting. But to see bars like those twice in a week in such wildly
different circumstances struck me as funny.

I know when things are too big to get in the way of riding so I guess
you're talking about Rimmer. I think his testicles are ten times the size
of mine.

DUUUUDE, you got that right! I've taken to carrying a small hacksaw with me
now, so the girlies I rescue can ride afterward without further and constant
assistance.

Yeah, please heed the Gregster about heeding the Rimster!

Shaun aRe - Wide bars is fo' dudes, mon!

Troot mon! I got cajones like steel basket balls. Only way I can ride is by
slinging one over each shoulder. No wonder I get such bad back ache...


Shaun aRe - Goodness, gracious, great balls of steel!
