Yeah, for them, it's a one way thing. For me, it's just fun to read what they write. I picture them sitting in their smoking jackets with a pipe in one hand, glass in the other.....Well, that's if they are in "That Room". Sometimes they move to the "Other Room", and well, I don't like to picture the "Other Room".

The derision of imbeciles is a badge of honor.

Of or by?

My banana has crossed over. I missed the opportunity. I am sad.

Either.

Hey pCad, you must be so conflicted. I mean, being able to chide yourself in the 33.

I stay out of the 33 now. I race on occasion and do rides like Nyack. My favorite part is when I'm still in the pack near the end of the stupid ride or race and I turn to a Road Nazi and say 'You know how I know these idiots aren't so fast? I'm still here.'

Friggin jerkwad Road Nazi scum that they are.

Did you reduce your racing because of your crash?

It wasn't racing that much in the first place. Cycling is sufficiently pointless and hazardous without the stupid racing.

I'm going to a Trek demo day tomorrow, hosted by my shop. It's out at Accotink park in Springfield for those interested. Take mountain bikes on the trails, road bikes on the roads.. should be fun.

Hey Pcad,

Are you a benefactor?

Velo, I think you killed the twits.

Can you imagine what the BF IM server is going through right now?

You know in comparison to the idiots in P&R and the idiots in the 33, this place almost seems normal.

It's a frightening thought.

I'm a hanger on.

In more ways than one.

Actually, there is no shame in being a hanger on, as long as you manage to hang.

I enjoyed reading your reply to that one. All 3 or so of them, in one post. Nice cleanup.

Stalker.

You should all fear my decreasing body mass by the way.

Hey, what's with that? You and the Wizzard of Oz both calling me that. Hmmmm.

is someone who doesn't race even allowed to call himself a road nazi?

I thought a RN was someone that rides like there is not tomorrow every day.
And a Roadie is someone that races, according to Eventservices book.
The ultimate would be a roadie nazi.

Well, it seems it is time for the shave.

I think 170 is my limit. Wife is already asking wtf is going on here. I already know I will never be as fast as the fast guys, but can still roll pretty well with them. Climbing 10K in a day is doable, but how fast can I expect to climb compared to the 140 pound whippersnappers I ride with anyway.
