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

What's going on? You're posting a lot of vapid, silly, and repetitive clutter rather than engaging in a conversation.

It's annoying.

Just sayin'.

Dude, you need to tone it down here. This is a fun thread, but it's here for everyone. It's not cool to monopolize it. You didn't get reported here because we are willing to allow you to settle down. They don't go for that there, they report. It's all part of their inclusiveness.

It all hinges on a pCad sponsorship. I think he might go for it, as he is faster than me.

Given his history over here, I think they just wanted to nip it in the bud.

Thing is, he was asked here to tone it down. No one reported him that I know of. No one there asked him to tone it down. They reported him. That speaks volumes to me.
