Yeah, I have lived in S. Calif. most of my life. Not only am I used to fragile egos, I also have one. But at this point... sticks and stones, etc. I also have a tendency to write things that bug the sh#t out of people, especially if their high in the ego gratification department.
You sound like your in the know stuff about the cycling scene. I've been out of it for a while. Is there such a thing as a bike made ENTIRELY in the U.S.A.? Right down to the screws... I would buy one in a heartbeat. I loath buying 3rd world sweat shop products bolted onto high end products.
