Oh don't flatter yourself. I say "fun" because of all the idiotic remarks I've heard from racers. The "if you've never pinned on a number, you've never really done any cycling". My point of fun was to show myself as a recreational cylcist. Racing, sure it's fun! I enjoy competition if you don't know. But I've been involved in several sports and competition, not just cycling.

I know some really good riders that will shake your hand if you're on a HUffy, but others that think too much of themselves because the payed $5 for a license. ( I really don't care about fees but some snobass will name the price)

I have nothing agains racers/racing, only the dumasses who think they are are the sheot cause they've raced. There are plenty of other sports in which I have competed and cyclists are not the best athletes as many will claim (maybe endurancewise sportwise) overall but to many think too much of themselves. I just think it's funny that because a 140 lb rider can beat me up a 10,000 ft climb, he might think he's stronger!

This is one sport that has shown the biggest ration of a-holes compared to others. I've never met a ball player, weighlifter that has said, dude if you've never competed in a race, you aint sheot!

Some of us come here to read about cycling, gather info about parts, rides etc, not criticizm for not using a powermeter or wearing the right color jersey by the pros.

Have toadd, liekmetnioned, I know alot of racers that stop by and are supercool dudes. They tell race stories and I listen in awe. But when I mention riding GMR, never do they "dude, you're too fat to climb like all this forum BS! Most are very encouraign and many have never been up GMR themselves. So to visit this forum and read all the snob BS is sickening really.

I don't get it, people come her to act like pros when they aren't! You can ask any of the riders I know and met, I talk and say the exact same things I post here. I don't insult people but if I'm insulted or someone makes a rude arrogant comment, I don't hold back. Not an internet tough guy but I don't insult people online like so many other wannabe snobs here, unless Ii am atacked first.

You, I don't know you and neve have you said anything rude to me, so I have no problem. More than I can say for others. If you want to ge rude, I have no problem either, but I don't think you do, not your personality.
