How did I know I went to the 41 by mistake?

The top post was "My confrontation with a motorist..." posted yesterday, and already had 162 responses on 5 pages.

I didn't even have to check whether or not I hit the wrong bookmark.

I'm home.

They like to be controversial over there, that's for sure.

sometimes I read threads in there and pretend I didn't. So many infractions, so little time.

It's up to 218 posts, and they are riding with pistols now.

When you said 'the 41' I thought you meant the A&S. Now that is an argumentitive group.

So if they are "the 41", does that make us "the 181". That even sounds old and boring.

Your post prompted me to see what they are saying in the 41. I must admit I laughed out loud (spelled out, for old-time's sake) when I read this thread, and I quote:

What would YOU do?
So on my ride today I was a clutz(sp?) and dropped my waterbottle while going downhill. I turned around and when i finally found it, it was in the worst spot possible. It was inside the body of a decaying deer...

I "wonder" what would happen if I told them that my old Superbe RD is 2g lighter than the new carbon Super Record 11 RD....

WOW! My wife was wondering why I was tearing so hard.
Yeah, this place is home.

Whoops, thought we were talking about the 8 - where 3 can get 8-ten, if 2 don't watch your step.
