There is nothing wrong with OCPs or Freds

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

They fuel the entire high end bike schwag industry. We owe them a debt of gratitude you stupid Road Nazi Elitist Weenie Morons.

No OCP Freds, no Zipp, PowerTap, Hed, Seven Cycles, IF, Serotta, etc. ad nauseum. You'd all be riding 8 year old Treks with Suntour Superbe that weigh 21 lbs.

If you don't think Freds are OCP, you don't know the right Freds. In fact I'd have to question if you'd ever seen a real Fred in person.

My dog Sam loves you. Of course my dog Sam would love Jack the Ripper or Osama Bin Laden if you know what I'm saying.

And my dog is still perfect. And if you disagree, look at him in the picture. Does it look like he cares?

How dare you try and bring peace between the never-ending war between OCPs and Freds and everyone else!

How about a 19 year old Trek with Suntour Superbe that weighs 19lbs (once you take off the shifty bits)?

That dog is fat.

But not as fat as my sister's golden. No wait. Maggie is bigboned.

Goldens are awesome dogs. They are way too nice.

With any luck we'll have pics come Saturday. I'm thinking that my Poseur jersey...and matching cap, are appropriate for the occasion.

I'm amazed when any of my bikes are as light as 22lbs.
