to explain each and every one of them. Why is it that you can't explain any of
the mountain biking accidents other than as examples of sheer stupidity due to
the hazards of trying to ride trails meant for hiking. I think we can all
clearly see who is at the asinine level.

There are 1.54 incidents per thousand exposures in the UK (according to the BMJ). There are billions of stars in the sky.

Therefore, QED, you are ... yet again ... provably wrong.

I am waiting for you to post some hiking/camping deaths so I can explain them to you – something that you are unable to do with biking accidents on trails.

Mountain bikers are barbarians and have no right to be on any trail used by hikers – unless they want to get off their god damn ****ing bikes and walk like everyone else. When they crash and injure themselves, I rejoice! If and when they manage to kill themselves, I say good riddance to bad rubbish! Death to mountain bikers!

from "A Later Life: A Double Sonnet of Sonnets"

Mountain bikes have wheels. Wheels are for roads.

Trails are for walking. What’s the matter? Can’t walk?
