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 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.

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.

Hello. My name is Jason. I am new here but I am definately not new to cycling. I'm a Cat 1 rider in California and my goal is to become pro. I ride often - hard, fast, aggressive, and most of all....RAW.
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.

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.

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.

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.

Good question. The answer: I have no plan B. I've backed myself into a corner and there's no where to go except right through the obstacles that confront me. 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....

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?

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...

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.
