Anti-Mountain Bike Advocate Attacks Cyclists With Handsaw
http://sfist.com/2010/06/02/anti-mou...te_attacks.php Anti-Mountain Bike Advocate Attacks Cyclists With Handsaw And that right there, readers, is the most bizarre headline we've ever typed. Noted -- noted! -- anti-mountain bike crusader Mike Vandeman was "arrested yesterday and charged with assault with a deadly weapon after he attacked a pair of mountain bikers with a handsaw." Cyclelicio.us reports: According to UC police, a pair of mountain bikers were cycling on a fire road in the hills above the UC Berkeley campus. A hiker — Mike Vandeman — struck one of the cyclists with a saw, cutting him across the chest. East Bay mountain bikers have reported other similar attacks on them, and some mountain bikers I know have expressed concern for their personal safety when Mike Vandeman is around. The harrowing incident, according to UC Berkeley police, happened on May 15. Why does Vanderman loathe those who ride on the dirty and dusty trails? Well, maybe because it'sbad for the trails and mother nature? Or because it conflicts with his desire to hike on anti-bike trails he wants to himself. Or because purple pony princesses like salty cracker neon beets. Who knows, exactly. (If you guessed 'all of the above,' you would be correct. Seriously, have a looksie.) Cyclelico.us goes on to point out that Vanderman gained gained attention in the 90s via his Usenet postings to wreck.bikes in which he painted mountain bikers as "addicted, narcissistic, violently insane liars." UC Berkeley police urge other victims or witnesses to come forward. Call the University of California Police Department Criminal Investigation Bureau at 510- 642-0472 from 8 a.m.- p.m., or 510)-642-6760 during off hours. |

If Bob Berger were anything but one of the supreme assholes of the world, he would know exactly why Mr. Vandeman does not want mountain bikes on hiking trails. But Bob Berger, besides being a stupid asshole, is also a lazy asshole. Mr. Vandeman must have posted at least 10,000 messages on these newsgroups telling us where he stands and why. Cyclelico.us goes on to point out that Vanderman gained gained attention in the 90s via his Usenet postings to wreck.bikes in which he painted mountain bikers as "addicted, narcissistic, violently insane liars." That is exactly what they are. Who could possibly deny it! And Bob Berger is an example of the species. All he does is lie all day long.

Call the University of California Police Department Criminal Investigation Bureau at 510- 642-0472 from 8 a.m.- p.m., or 510)-642-6760 during off hours. Better shut up Bob Berger as there are laws against slander and calumny. If you aren't careful, you will be standing before a judge in a court room trying to explain yourself. ****ing Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

LOL Pity the poor schlub whose job it is to mine those posts for evidence of Vandeman's inability to reason. Maybe the prosecutor will print out the most damning bits and wheel them into court ala Hannibal Lector. :-) Wayne |

He wants all trails closed to all visitors. Period. He'll even engage in physical assault -- both active and passive -- to bring harm to people in the name of protecting AT THE VERY MOST 0.004% of the environment.

There is no slander in reporting the quote that police used. Only a hermit living in a cave could dream up such an assertion. Maybe you should have pursued marriage, kids, an dmeaningful job, and homeownership instead of the education that has clearly failed you. |
