I am more convinced than ever that Vandeman has been right about EVERYTHING
all along. Mountain bikers are the scourge of the earth and there is not an
honest one in the bunch. Nothing but liars. Why does not God strike them all
dead. Indeed, that is the question.

Vandeman and Dolan should be required reading for all on these freaking
cycling newsgroups. Where the hell do cyclists get off thinking they own the
world and can do anything they want. All Vandeman and I want is that you
stay off of our sacred hiking trails. Why? Because you do not belong on
them. You are all slobs and you can get your own freaking trails, otherwise
known as roads. There are thousands of miles of gravel roads for you to ride
your mountain bikes on here in Minnesota. Just stay off of our sacred foot
paths.

It ought to be require penance that all cyclists read the Great Ed Dolan and
also the Great Mike Vandeman. How the hell else are you ever going to learn
anything. But no, just keep to your incestuous ways. Ignorance like yours is
what prevents the world from ever getting any better. Stick your heads in
the sand like the ostriches that you are. All the better for me to kick your
dumb asses.

Anyone know what this dumb asshole who goes by the name of cc is into? I
suspect the numbers are some kind of code for his latest obscenity.

Personally I think if people would stop responding to posts from a
couple of posters, they would go away.

Most likely true; greatly facilitated by the use of a killfile. It
also helps to trim down the quoting to the bare minimum if a response
to something in such a thread is warranted.
