Yeah, rich. Your copy pasting wiki entries and definitions is getting old.

Remember what the teacher said, "kids, everything should be in your own words."

You seem like a decent guy RTC so the only thing I can say about this is "if the shoe fits...". I wont be rewriting/paraphrasing clinical definitions anytime soon.

The more I read the fine Doctors original post more I think it should have been reported to the mods and let them deal with it.

Don't think we're not watching you to see if you can sport that FZ avatar with the respect it deserves. There's a fine line between success and fail at play, so don't blow it.

Yes, that's a bit out of place since there is a separate forum to discuss pro racing.

Did you just misuse "you're" for "your"?

to be fair, rich responded with "whose" instead of "who's" immediately after that.

His expectations are reasonable given his history. (1/5)



I wouldn't call him a sprinter. (1/5)



I'll give you this one, because, while not being a real doctor, he is a chiro and that's cooler than your job. (2/5)

Only 2 of 5.

Remember the not so distant past days when a mod would step in from time to time in a thread like this and say, "Had enough guys? I think this thread has run it's course. Consider it locked."

Please don't let that happen here.

The shoe doesn't fit. DrWJO has never given me any impression of having NPD (including at this point). Give it a rest.

Look I started posting here when I was new and got helpful answers...the Sticky that Botto started is where I would have looked first had it been in existence when I first arrived. I was thinking on my ride today how I've evolved...Bicycling mag...all things were answered...then I out grew that rag..then asking teammates and friends..then the 41 then here. There are some noobs that come here and ask smart questions and lurk and learn..then there are some who jump in with both feet as if they've been here for years...I think those and the ones who get offended easily (the I need a hug and wave crowd) are the ones that Doc is referring to.

Rich I have to say that you've exposed your 33 ignorance..the Doc is one of the "Great Fountains of Knowledge" around here. He not only can talk the talk but he backs it up.

Yeah, um, I've done one crit. Collegiate D. I was dropped but it was real fun, and I'd like to win Nats next year. Which carbon wheels are the fastest and how many mph will I gain with them?

No, it was a mashup of a few different posts. The main inspiration was someone who came on and said he wanted to win Nationals after only having done C and D, IIRC. I think he may still read/post here so I'm probably going to stir something up now
