If he wasn't wearing his heart monitor when he crashed, it didn't happen

Oh wow Tim! How are you?!?!

Just getting back into cycling after a long'ish hiatus(8 mo). Going to be focusing a little more on longer rides that focus more on scenery and see'in sh8t instead of just riding like a moron around the block.

Dude yes that fixed gear was stolen and if I find out who it is, they're going to get a beatdown. It was stolen out in front of the library at my uni. I went to the police station on campus and they told me that they couldn't do anything because I didn't "register the serial number" with them. I told them that if I see anyone with an orange, gigantic frame they're going to get a beatdown and the cop just waved his hands and said "you can try talking to them"...Yeah right I'm going to try talking to a thief...grrrr.

ovoleg, so nice to have you back. You are the spice that has been missing from this forum for so long. Now tell me, what cross street is the second stop sign that you begin your Reseda hill climb? Do you blast through the rest of the stop signs? Let me know. You know, you are my favorite Russian, except for the others.... It would be interesting to see if this 64 year old 185 pound non noob can beat your time.... Oh, I have a HR meter.

I remember your name but I can't remember who you are in real life. I love tho brah.

Look at all the Strava top segments that are near red lights/stop signs. The starting speed is rarely 0 mph, its usually done with speed, thats what noobs do, they straight up cheat like gangsters.

HRM or you're cheating too, cuz for realz people be using motorcycles for some segments.

There was a guy on the gate - shack segment with an average speed of 26 mph... the top pro cyclists hit 16 mph in a RACE up that hill so i reckon he's cheating.

No HR info so I went with the ovoleg's "Rules of Identifying Cheaters" and flagged him.

I didn't realize that was part of the program. Unfortunately, his name has been stricken from the books and I don't remember who is was. Tragedy!

Order has been restored though.
