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

Religious references don't belong, by the way. Take it to the beagle forum.

Agree! I didn't even want to post for fear of bumping this, however it is near the top. This thread has gone from mildly entertaining, to blatantly idiotic, now it is just beyond hopeless. Keeping this open is pointless.

What was it about?

Unless someone reports it the Ayes will probably go unnoticed.

After reading all 76 pages of this thread, I'm still debating on whether this guy is trolling or not. I really think whatever he is interested in at the moment that he goes and finds a forum for it, and this is the result that always happens. If I had to make a bet, Id put my money on ADHD.

Seems like he has good intentions, but some bad decision making processes. As far as trolling, I doubt we ever find out. Trolls usually enjoy people knowing they got trolled and don't take it this far. Entertaining at least.

fast 89 fox got it right. whatever i am into at the moment, i google forums for it. beagle forum, road bike forum, tropical fish forum, headphone forum, etc. that is how it goes. recently ive been called a troll more times than i can count but i still post on the forums just because i like to ask questions about the things im interested in at the moment, etc. but thanks for the fun guys. id like to make it to 100 pages, but i just dont see that happening. it just got too old. somehow i think we will make it to 100, if people keep posting their ayes.

How you made it through 76 pages makes me wonder if you had a gun to your head. This thread should be euthanized. In the age of the internets, patience is no longer a virtue and retaining focus is becoming less and less prevalent. OP, glad you got something from it.

So do you lose interest in these things as suddenly as you gain interest in other things? One of the best things for ADHD can be intense and sustained exercise - so you may want to stick out the biking. Just remember that cycling is the fun part, and the forums just help pass the time between rides.
