Hehehe...It was the best I could find on short notice. I should've looked it up in the dictionary
because your pics would have been right there next to the word. ;^) No margin for error is there?

Yeah, there seems to be more and more of them. Aren't you soon to be one of those? What with your
new custom? (or soon to be) Why don't you get over your tired ol' retro grouch, toe clip wearing,
no haircut getting, close-minded b.s. You're too old for the fight it'll take to get rid of em'
GET OVER IT!

I suppose I'm opening up to a flamewar by even touching this one, but what the heck is a 'dewbiw'?

Ah...I think I understand. I'm being lumped into the group of adrenaline-fueled maniacs made popular
by mountain dew commercials of late...I think I can handle that.

I guess the question that springs immediately to mind is, what's wrong with that? I know, I
know...I'm supposed to hate spandex-wearing, leg-shaving, riser-bar-having XC'ers, look down on the
evil roadies, and everybody is supposed to laugh uproariously at recumbants. But I guess the real
question is, why?

I'm impressed that guys like Tinker can easily spin up huge mountains without thinking twice - no
way I can do that. I'm impressed that Wade can flow off insane cliffs, and yet can still manoever
his 45-pound-plus machine through the most technical trails on the Shore. It's frickin' awesome to
see people doing backflips and spins on their BMX's. But does that mean that any of them are more of
a rider than the next guy? Or more 'right'?

Except for them frickin' recumbants.... ;o)

My DHi and C-40 all seem to get along lol. Either a sign of a true cyclist or a sick mind. I've been
told both.

You don't know anything, obviously.

Keep thinking that, doof. Again, you know nothing. Your obsession with my hair is once again, noted.

Yes, you most certainly should, humpy.

Been thinking that since I first posted. Has anything changed? Has the "freeride" movement come to a
grinding halt? Does it appear to you it's going to? Has Mt Dew sales slid in proportion to your
whining on usenet? Nay, in fact it's probably doubled. Get over it...

> with my hair is once again, noted.

not an obsession, just an observation. I'm obsessed with my kids learning their multiplication
tables. Observations about your ponytail are good ol' fashion, pure trolls....you recognize what a
troll is don't you? Sure ya'
do.

It may never happen Marzocchi don't seem that interested in putting world cup riders on their
product as much as RS, Manitou do. Probably don't wont to distance themselves form real consumers.
