Sorry for the rant, but I see this kind of thing WAY too much on forums, i think it ruins the spirit of them.
Well said. I think the wealth of knowledge here is amazing, but the flipside to that is the amount of negativity towards other people's bikes. I have never experienced so much haterism in any 'scene' [for the lack of a better term] than bikes. But there are a lot of cool folks on this board who i have met, so for that i keep coming back.
