  1. I am aware of Two Elks but has anyone ridden Grand Traverse
    / Cougar Mountain trail? I'm looking for a good 20+ miler
    last week of July.

    From sea level to 12,000 ft? Sounds like a medical miracle
    to me. Bring lots of friends and ride the real comando run.

    I do this every year. I'm out there for work and get a day
    or two to play. I've done the DH stuff, and I don't have an
    interest in that anymore. I can handle the altitude
    adjustment. I did the Kokopelli one day after landing. No
    breathing problems.

    You should do the comando run then. Remember to prevent
    H.A.F.E. use Deet. Bring a needle for you pericardial
    tamponade. (sp)

    Yeah, if I got shuttled up the Dewey climb, I'd have no
    breathing problems either. You didn't do the Kokopelli if
    you didn't ride the whole route.

    Yeah, he should. Though I have a feeling that his version of
    HAFE comes in the form of halitosis because of all of the
    [censored] he talks.

    Onion Creek wasn't a half bad climb for someone from the
    "flatlands". I'll take what I can get. As far as I am
    concerned, I did it and that makes me happy. I don't have
    to impress anyone else other than myself. You should
    understand that.

    Onion Creek isn't the Kokopelli Trail. Your flase claim that
    you rode the Kokopelli Trail is just that, false. You may
    have ridden *on* the Kokopelli Trail, but you did not *ride*
    it because you didn't ride all of it. Anyone with half of a
    brain should be able to understand that.

    Aw, I don't take it to heart. He's done that a lot to other
    people. I actually find it quite amusing. I really would
    like to ride with him one day. He knows some out of the way
    trails and is a very good rider. Might even be able to teach
    me a few things. From what others have told me, this is just
    his Internet persona.

    So why the facade?

    There was a time when JD would actually email Webtv users
    asking them not to forsake posting even though they were
    being belittled by some regulars for improper nettiquet and
    posting via Webtv. I was one of those who was emailed on
    several occasions asking me to stay and "join him" (he was
    on webtv at the time). Now he does a complete 180 and it's
    all in the name of having an "internet personna". It's
    getting as old and repetitive as Mike V's ramblings.

    Well nobody is perfect and neither you nor him are on WebTV,
    so why not end the bitterness. I learned long ago that some
    battles are just not winnable, expecially on the Internet.
    This is a faceless and personalityless mode of conversation.
    Anyone can be whomever they want to be and you have no
    control over it. Why not just go with the flow and
    occassionally learn a thing or two. Just throw out the
    retoric you don't like.

    I am not saying I agree with the way JD acts, but there is
    nothing you can do about so life goes on.

    I apologized to JD before to end this [censored] but it seems he
    or his internet personna will not let it go. I did my part.
    Must be some macho thing.
