Match #1: don d. vs. Lord Opie -- venues can vary, but we could start out with a no-holds barred, 1 on 1, 20 mile time trial.
Any more potential match-ups???

Yuh know, it won't be too long now before we know if he is real or not...he either shows up for the Markleeville Death Ride in July (?), which he said he was going to do, and is seen, or he doesn't show up.
I think there is a chance that he wasn't real until just recently when he bought a bike. He's talked about test-riding and shifting lately, and he hadn't previously. I also noticed that he didn't have anything to say in the "unwritten rules of a group ride thread", even when it had gotten to four pages, because he had never ridden, let alone with a group....it's easy to ratchetjaw about components by cribbing off manufacturer websites, but in order to write knowledgeably about a group ride, you have to have read about it or done it, and he hadn't....
I hear Markleeville fills up early, so he had better register first chance. I guess he can ride out there if he hasn't got his license yet and his parents are too busy....

Me vs Myself.
At least then, I am fully aware of the capabilities of my competition. This ensures a win.

Vader's the ultimate metrosexual.Metrosexual: A hip, stylish male whose elegant taste might have once been assume to come from some sexual confusion but is not acceptable high fashion in the cities.
Can't think of any good examples off the top of my head...(other than Vader)
