Pop by the racing forum and dig through all of botto's race reports... or his ride reports from the various granfondos he's done... he's kinda got you on this one.

Most likely to take shots at people because nobody knows who he is or has any recollection of a significant contribution: ^^^

I don't know, Greg--I think you'd take the generosity award. I never had the opportunity to take you up on it, but it was certainly appreciated.

I started this thread partly in response to the recent "What do women want" threads, pcad's mega-threads, erader's and howitz's nonsense during TDF, and an all-too typical cynical reply in the LD forum to a new poster asking about back-to-back centuries.
Like some of you, I turn to RC for entertainment, both the food-fights and pcad's non-stop musings. I agree that the Mechanics forum is the best for help, and nearly everyone there tries to be helpful. My thanks to everyone who keeps it going.
My intent was to give a "shout-out" to those who keep us coming back, the pcads, bottos, umds, ... And also to give pause to some others whose sole intent can only be to annoy the hell out of everyone. (Someone please tell me Richard Cranium is a troll. Not that trolls are excusable.) If I'm lucky, maybe one or more of those will reflect on what kind of poster they are.
So, y'all, keep it going. Give props where they're due. Oh, and as to racers on the forums, I'm clueless. I'm just an old kid riding his bike around. I'll let you guys resolve the Real Deal, I'm going riding. See 'ya.

He doesn't need anyone to defend him, but the noobs posting about how big of a troll he is have probably never ridden their bike enough to actually understand why he gives the advice that he does.

blotto seems like a typical road weenie. Probably wears a size XS in everything, if you know what I mean.

As far as contributions to the BF are concerned - you are...wait for it...incorrect. The two of you just got here. Botto's been contributing quality posts for years. Let's give the ego a rest, m-kay?
