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.
This is getting way off topic, but when have me or Nick ever said or done any of thos things?
