The degree of denial among mountain bikers is amazing!

Wrong again banana brain, I only rode a mountain bike because the
roads where I lived were so bad that I had to have suspension to keep
a headlight on to ride home from my 2nd shift job. My regular road
bike would only keep a headlight for about 10 miles before it would
shake off the bracket or destroy the bracket.

I just think you are a nut case with no redeeming social qualities.
