Ok and stuff.
But why do you think we’d be interested in such triviality?

'Round here about now, we look at the calendar with trepidation, counting off the dwindling days of nice riding weather and dreading the inevitable return of Heck On Earth for its five or so character-building months. You don't have to shovel it or scrape it, but 117° days (or worse the 90° lows) aren't much fun. But we muddle through and enjoy the many months of nice weather and hope the hot months keep the riff-raff out.

Do you agree there is enough crap going on between people in the world around us? It would sure be nice to come to the Bike Forums to get away from that. How about that? Too much to ask of you?

I don’t think I’ve, as in me personally, have ever been referred to as “harsh”.
oh, I get it now…. You’re being harsh.

It wasn't that harsh. He's also right. What is the point of the original post (which was rather odd)?

I thought the post was rather strange too, however; rather than giving the guy a bad time for it, I decided the better thing to do is just ignore it. IOW, just walk away until I see people giving him crap behind the cloak of their keyboards. Do we really need to do that? Can’t people just be decent?
You are ignoring the posts (and the people who liked those posts) that disagree with you.

Instead, you stepped right into the trap set by someone other than me.

^^^This. OP was a joke and it's not surprising who was sucked into his "defense." But since we are here, how many of you like bagels for breakfast?

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that I rolled my gravel bike up the stairs from the basement to the garage last night. And rest assured, I will be posting more things like this since nice spring weather is coming.
