I apologize, as I assume I had a moment where I took myself and my enjoyment of the sport far to seriously.

Indeed, there have been several posts from different people to the same blog/url, with little or no clarity as to who is associated with a particular post/result.
I believe that I responded in a complimentary way to the first post (by PJ I believe), and maybe the second as well.
I revisited the blog and then went to your site and can now see that there are 4 of you. I see great energy and excitement in your posts and your site. It would be helpful for a person to
link to the specific blog post that is related to a recent result, rather than to the general blog url. For example, PJ could link to
here (
http://rercycling.blogspot.com/2011/...di-series.html) rather than just the url for the entire blog. It then becomes clearer that this blog post is where greater detail can be found on a BikeForum post about a race result.
When I see several posts from different people to the same url, with limited clarity, and no replies back (I did ask for clarity in an earlier post), and no 2-way conversation (at least from what I could see, prior to your reply about my reply to your post), it gives a somewhat spam-like feel.
