Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

It happened late Sat night, just before midnight, it involved many chants and the blood sacrafice of a Shimano tripple rider.

Ahhh..I see.
Does this mean no more riding a triple for him now?
He can no longer be friends with us now so as to keep his objectivity?
Is now open to bribes to allow our threads not to get bumped to something called FOO?
Still likes RUSH though, right?

hahaha

you didnt know?

oh well yes I am a mod now. It was funny when koff contacted me that I was picked for the possible mods, i sat staring at my computer for about a minute in shock. It is a big deal for me, and I am thanksful that I was picked!

Now, just becasue i am a mod doesnt mean I am still the 15 year old kid from wayland who is in love with rush. I only ahve a blue star! and a little more authority. But we can still be regular people. I will try my hardest to distinguish between "hi565" and "hi565-Mod"

Thanks guys!

Way to go man. Now you need a sig that says something like, "Would you like some buds with that?"

I think I am going to use the post from another thread where hip said that. And noooo

I desperatley need someone to help me with resizing. I have some possible pictures for avatars but I cant seem to get them right. There is urgent need!

thanks

Hey! Congrats Rush dude, aka hi565. I'm sure you will make a great mod.

BTW:
In the furture, when I make a questionable post that could either be taken as a blatent deroatory remark that would get me banned, or non serious humour. I prolly meant the one that would get me banned.

EDIT: Wait a minute! I meant the other way.... aww... never mind. Ban me.

T.J.
