Tomcat cruise missiles
There is no such thing. One could only hope that there's no you either.


F22 stealth fighters
It's F-22A, and no one calls it the 'stealth fighter' except CNN maybe.


nuclear weapons
You can't use 'em! Ever! You use 'em, you end the World forever. They aren't that great all of a sudden, eh?

Board admin needs to check his IP. Did it come from the same ISP and same part of the country as a certain recently banned member?

I do have a question, but it's rather esoteric, and I don't feel like PMing you. Okay...here's my question: Huh? Okay, look forward to your response.

I appreciate cockiness...it's certainly necessary in bike racing. But, if you're for real...you're an a**. And if you're not for real...you're an a**. I don't expect I'll be reading any more of your posts, and I hope the reason is that there are no more to read.

This smells like Applejacks,guads,farmpoop.

sleazy 10-17-07 06:22 PM

any real racer is in his recovery phase right now and is probably too tired or apathetic to be THAT jazzed up.

wake me up when base starts up in another week or two.

You should go back to your LBS an get a proper crucifix fitting!
The one you're using is much too small.

Why do I seem cocky? All the greats are. It comes from believing in yourself. Who do you want operating on you in a life/death situation? Someone who is unsure if they can do the job? Or someone that says let's do this?

Perhaps you may see me one day on OLN racing with greats...I think about this moment every day until it becomes reality. Nuclear weapons, F22 stealth fighters, Tomcat cruise missiles, ME... What do they all have in common? We're purpose built to do the job as efficiently as possible.

The taste of victory is sweet my friends. Unfortunately I have also tasted the bitter sweetness of defeat. Therefore I am incorporating power meter training, off season weight lifting, EPO, and electroshock therapy to sharpen my blade. 2008 will be a slaughterfest.

If you have any questions I can answer feel free to drop me a PM or email.

Welcome to BikeForums Jason. I do have a question, but I'll PM that to you. But a friendly few bits of advise for now:

1) cockyness without the proof to back it up is generally the fastest way to get run out of here on a rail.

2) Making 'My Formal Introduction' threads to proclaim how great you will be, is probably the second fastest.

3) Blue stars are the mods / admins. Try not to get too many PMs from us. Life is better for everyone that way. :)

4) The SoCal crew is a friendly bunch. Head over to the Regional subforum, join a ride with them, get to know a few of the other forum members.

Bets are he knows already...method and madness thing...

The OP's apparent idiocy makes pro cycling the perfect professional choice. Crappy work conditions, no money, extreme danger and no future. Unless this kid is the next Lance, in which case none of this BF BS will matter to him anyway. And if he's too old to be a 'kid' it's too late for him to get started in pro racing. One thing is certain: Pcad Cycling Zen will always elude him.

redal 10-17-07 06:54 PM

I was wondering NorCal or SoCal. If you're SoCal, what team?

Dude, just a minor point of Parliamentary procedure - if you're going to bold a word, please spell it correctly.

BillyD 10-17-07 07:10 PM

It's Euro.

Somebody contact Rad.

The possibility of not achieving my goals is impossible to comprehend at the present moment...only motivational thoughts and images roam inside my mind. This is the level of commitment I will put into cycling in 2008....

So in other words, "would you like fries with that" is your plan B. Even if you don't realize it.

drewpyperc 10-17-07 07:26 PM

Dude! Why are you so yellow? Jaundice? You need to get some sun! Hmmm... Come to think of it, if you're going to be a pro we see racing on OLN (which is now Versus, by the way), why don't you have a super-duper crazy farmer tan like most pro cyclists?

Hee hee. This is fun.

I say I move this to the racing forum and let them offer up their opinion. Any objections?

BillyD 10-17-07 07:37 PM

Nope.

UmneyDurak 10-17-07 07:42 PM

Nope.

patentcad 10-17-07 07:45 PM

Whaaaaaaaatever boys. Next topic.

LIUser22 10-17-07 07:50 PM

LOL, why would a pro cyclist with such an ego waste his time with us, we're not going to praise him in any way as seen already...

Does smell like him doesn't it. Also 2Tired2Shift, The Gnome, etc...same old tired wrap.

wanders 10-17-07 08:20 PM

I didn't know that Alexey Vayner was a cyclist.

rubic 10-17-07 08:24 PM

I don't know since I'm just guessing. But I think that the OP has a helmet size of XXXL or something like that.

ZeCanon 10-17-07 08:31 PM

You need to lose about 20 pounds of upper body to be a pro. You're fat.
