It is so hard to put aside the competitive instinct or the rush to complete whatever task lies ahead and just look at the scenery -- at least for me.. But this time of year, regardless of what is looping through my brain, the scenery seems to take over, and I sit up in my saddle and think, God damn, this is gorgeous.

Allow me to introduce you to North Road handlebars, and the pleasures of riding on a saddle lower than your handlebars.

Is it that hard for you motorcycle guys to start your own thread rather than continually hijacking BICYCLING threads?

You can always ignore this sub-thread if you want to.

Thread drift has always been part of usenet.

Thread drift is one thing. Netscum like Daniels deliberately wrecking threads because he thinks we're not paying enough attention to his stupidities is quite another thing, and should be stamped on before it becomes the norm.

A little common courtesy from everyone else would not come amiss either, especially after the OP asked that the motorcycle people start their own thread.

When people continually hijack threads then it's beyond annoying. It's downright rude.

I've basically given up here and doubt if I'll be starting any more threads.. What's the sense in starting aa topic if it just gets highjacked in only a few replies? People want to talk motorcycles in a bicycle thread where the OP is trying to get some bicycle related info. I just don't understand why those people don''t simply start their own thread. Laziness on the thread hijacker's part perhaps?

That's good, Phil, otherwise people might conclude you have the sensitivity of an earthworm.

I've made a motorbike thread and stocked it with snacks, just for you.
