RBR Gods
Bruce Johnston wrote: Ok, since the theme has been stirred up, I have always wondered too. Who are the RBR gods? What is the pecking order? Can anyone provide a list of the top five? At least you can get an idea about rank and status. It's not personal, just out of pure interest? Does knowledge fit into it? Then where would Maso and Coggan fit? Or is it based on who is most active with best data? Assuming that we know who runs the pack, who are the subordinate gods after supreme ruler? My guess and its just speculation... 2. Pap 3. Carl 4. Tritonrider 5. Bikerecker But if pure knowledge is priority then Sundquist, Maso and Coggan would be right up there. There are quite a few others but who would they be? B- I'm only just starting to learn who the players are. I haven't really followed racing too much the past 15 years or so; Carl is the only regular poster whose name I know independently. I remember him as national track team, pursuiter IIRC; I also notice that, like the other top racers I've met, he doesn't need to BS anyone. It was the perpetual cat IIIs that would razz the non-racers for having hairy legs. I have an image of Benjo hangin with Bartali, Bobet and the other greats. He's obviously educated and doesn't need to insult anyone. Henry and Tom are trying hard to make people think they're adolescent, but they're too mature and can't cut it. I've never seen so many guys use "asswipe" and "dumbass" as terms of endearment. Steve |

"Ken Papai" wrote Bart used to be really informative but something happened there about a year ago. I think he burned out. Ken I put this on the "things I learned on RBR"-list ? |

Carl The list of others deserving consideration is very short. OMC, Laudien, Lieswyn, Sharon Peters, and anyone named Carney. The lesser dieties woud be JFT X000, Schmantz, The BenSharp 4, and Mike "check out my other autions" Jones. Of course, should Andrew ever abandon his quest to become the next Tiger Woods and return to bicycle racing, all bets are off. |

I'm sure he will show up around worlds this year with his insight into USAC. I heard a rumor that Scott Patton and Lafferty are really best of friends and now have a condo together in Aspen. They both deserve to be on a RBR "list" of some sort. Papai gets my vote as supreme ruler with Kunich as his bitch. OMC |

Unfortunately he's still around and still appears to dislike bike racing. |

He got married. More than two years ago and I COULD NOT HAVE made a better move. -kjp For the newbies: Pappy was going out on his first date with this woman. For some really, really dumb reason, he queried RBR for first date advice. The best was from J. Verheul, who advised him to: "pound it like there's no tommorrow" so that Pappy's libido would be sated and he wouldn't be too forward (trying to get laid). The rest is history. Pappy married that woman. See? RBR isn't completely useless. K. Gringioni RBR official historian |
