I'm sorry, I know you have some over zealous sense of your intelligence but if you're going to continue to take swipes at me at least make an effort for them to make some degree of sense. I don't really need to 'project' where I am, there are things like race results and rankings that can pretty much tell you where you are. It doesn't take much more than getting out off the sunday fredly world championship ride to know that even the best racers win at a rate roughly equivalent to a sub par major league hitter, and with each step out of one's local fish pond there's usually going to be someone faster on any given day. Once you get to regional races that's pretty much a given, and it gets worse with every category upgrade.
