Hey, what have the poor people of Hell, Michigan done to deserve Michael
"Handsaw" Vandeman in their midst?

My statement stands. Catherine Pickering is the world authority on the
impacts of mountain biking, as demonstrated by her command of the
related literature and her ability to conduct research not just on the
topic directly, but also on related domains. You, in contrast, are a
local loon with a penchant for writing letters.
^^^^^^^^^^

In other breaking news, "Shraga" beaten by local loons who were offended
by being compared to Michael J. Vandeman, Piled Higher and Deeper.

You might want to hold off and do something worth mentioning before
calling yourself an "authority" on anything.

Mikey V. is an authority in being a Usenet troll.

I also understand he is pretty handy in combat with a HANDSAW.

Mike, did you use powdered soap in the shower in jail because it takes

If you don't understand the issues, why not read my posts and LEARN
something? Too difficult for you? Most of my posts aren't written by
me, but by professional reporters. Why don't you complain to THEM?
Don't like hearing the truth? I can suggest some countries which don't
have freedom of speech, where you might be more comfortable, like
North Korea, Iran, Syria, etc.

All he needs to know is Michael J. Vandeman has a criminal record and
did jail time recently.

I must have said something to **** him off about his racing activities once
long ago. Cyclists who want to go fast are from a different planet than me.
It is all foolishness of course. I guess some people just never grow up.

Instead of posting asshole comments about MV, why not tell us something
about your velomobile? Even that idiot TM might be interested although I
think he only likes to talk to himself.

Well, I bought a Mini [1] for running around town. Great low speed
handling, and a seat that does *not* try to wedge itself up one's arse.
Stout enough to take on curbs and potholes.

[1] A RANS Mini, that is.

If this is your bike now, it means you have given up on cycling. Well, it
happens to all of us sooner or later. Apparently your velomobile proved to
be a mistake.

But speaking of RANS, I bought a RANS V-Rex last summer from Calhoun Cycles
and have been riding it ever since. This is the bike I should have gotten 20
years ago instead of the Vision. However, the minute I start to fall on any
of my many two wheelers, I will switch to my three wheelers. When you get to
be my age, broken bones from falls are out of the question.
