Ryan F ... where did he go?

Notices
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

He's gone until he wins a race, or so the admins would have us believe.


Amazingly, the board has survived his absence. Who'dathunkit?

He is banned, don't know the details, but he has a blog if you need to get your fix, where he states he is going to enter and win every race out there and move up in cat status at a record pace. Same stuff, different internet location.

yeah I was wondering this to, when I stopped checking the board was when I think cypress(could be somebody else its been awhile and for that matter there may not actually be a cypress on this board I maybe mixing and matching from other boards I watch) was being accused of being him.

OP,

You've just been added to the mod's watchlist. Pretty much any mention of him and you get sentenced to 20 years hard labor in The Gulag.

The OP signed his post "Randy."

There's no way he could be Ryan if he signed it that way. No possible way. That's a whole different name!

The OP's post was also coherent and devoid of 2nd grade spelling errors. More obvious signs it wasn't ryanf (aka "The Crucified").

No way to argue with that well reasoned logic.

Sorry, still not following.

As to the last part, yes, he was that bad.

That's okay, we'll just have adult conversations and skip the aol'ese. Kind of like it says in the forum guidelines.
