Wow Timmy, you are SO right! These guys are just out to get you . . . I can't believe it!

Normally, I'm happy to just sit back and enjoy these arguments from the sidelines, but something here has struck a nerve . . . maybe its the U of IA connection . . . who knows. The bottom line is that you need to sit back, chill, sleep, whatever you need to do. You're embarrassing yourself with your self righteous indignation. The more you try to make it out that everyone else is the bad guy, the more inconsistent you become. Consider:

There are two in Burlington Iowa on the 23rd of May. That is likely going to be my race.

I get the feeling your trying to prove something...if that's the case, you're wasting your time. This thread has nothing to do with finding races, there are plenty of them. I'm not sure how this discussion even came up.

Oh, gee, I don't know . . . . oh, that's right! It was in your OP:

So we jump in and tell you to just get out there and enjoy it and provide you with links to various races. Recognizing that you've also asked the qualitative question of which race in particular we would recommend, some responses have done just that. To which you reply:

Go race
Don't do that one
Take your time
Just do it

hmmm
Ok, maybe you don't want that qualitative advice . . .

Any input on are races? Which one would you recommend?

Or then again . . . . maybe you did?

Bottom line: (1) No one is out to get you. (2) Just go race.

Oh, and BTW: Ethics? On ebay? That's priceless!
