Money Islander opinions and yours in particular matter not, but I will give the monkeys this much. There is some very fast company in that group and some advanced fast bikes (carbon land misiles [sic] as you refer to them) ... aerodynamic low racers that offer a distinct advantage over the upright platform when it comes to blazing the tarmac. Always wanted to spend some time on one, but never have. I just prefer the upright I guess. If that means I am slower on a titanium upright than I would be on a carbon lowracer missile, I can accept that since cycling isn't all about speed for me. Selectively reading just a portion, and not all of the thread, you apparently missed that. Like I said to Dolan .. I enjoy riding be it fast or slow. I just enjoy being on a bike. An older person attempting to be fast on any kind of a bike is an absurdity. Grow up and act your age. When you have become wise like Ed Dolan the Great, you will KNOW that going slow is the ultimate high. Leave speed to the young and the foolish. [...] A person of your age refusing to acknowledge the capabilities and achievements of those in his age group, demonstrates absurdity. *There are those of age who not only attempt to be fast on a bicycle but succeed. *Just because you are incapable, it does not follow that everyone else should follow in the footsteps of an underachiever. *You are not only opinionated. *You are bullheaded. *In your case, with age comes wisdom just doesn't apply. *I hope that I will never become so close minded as you as I grow older. *Oh, and I will ride I as I choose and not as you advise. *I guess you still haven't got the message that your advice, like your opinion is of no value.

You might want to add a few disclaimers to your resume, up there. Fast is, when talking about other riders, a subjective and argumenitive metric. Truth be told, I've never met you, but since just about anyone on the planet can ride faster than me, I'll assume you can too. But as far as the claim you make about your relative fastness...I can imagine the monkey islanders laughing their collective asses off at you right now. Maybe next spring I can be one of the spectators watching you take on the monkeys for a repeat of the classic Kaneville century. If you want bragging rights though, you'll have to ride your titanium road bike. If you ride the P38 you'll have too much of an advantage over those old slowpokes on their stuffy old fashioned carbon land missles. You could *be strong competition for cuda-boy, though. You'll probably sit in on the baracuda's draft and slingshot around right at the very end for a sub 3 and a half hour century. That would give you some bragging rights. Just kicking everyone riding on carbon and steel lowracers asses while you're blasting by on the P38...there's no sport in it. I also have to give props where they are due JimmyMac. I admit to passing on almost every set of posts the has Ed and then your name and then using the 'catch-up' button to mark all the stupid **** you two post to each other as read. But for some reason I decided to open this post. I might have been thinking that the real dirt on LeQuann was going to show up, but instead, I got to read the load of SPEEDY Olympic World Champion Jimmymac CRAP. This is one of the funniest posts in the history of ARBR...even better than Cletus telling Martin Krieg to fok-off. Thanks for the BIG LAFF JimmyMac. You've brightened my day. gotbent, aka FRT rider Gotbent, I have been saddled with one of the most crazy persons I have ever encountered on Usenet. JimmyMac cannot possibly be sane. I have prodded and poked him every which way I can think of, and yet he comes back for more. I think he must be the most lonely person in the entire universe to want to send messages to someone like me. I am here for farce (even Tom Sherman figured that much out) and he is dumb enough to take me seriously. I mean, how do you get to be so clueless? Not that it much matters, but I think you missed the point that Gotbent doesn't think very highly of either of us.

You've brightened my day. gotbent, aka FRT rider ps see ya in Kaneville? Oops. I forgot to add that one of your Monkey Islanders once said of me that I was the fastest 50 year old he knew and added that even the pros think he's [me] fast, although cycling isn't all about going fast. Oh and Gotbent ..... GET BENT! |

In your case, with age comes wisdom just doesn't apply. I hope that I will never become so close minded as you as I grow older. Oh, and I will ride I as I choose and not as you advise. I guess you still haven't got the message that your advice, like your opinion is of no value. I never cease to be amazed at my own genius. How did I ever get to be so Great? Yea, that is the question! I never cease to be amazed now very often you deliberately ignore or misconstrue what others say and rely with nothing more than an immaterial, irrelevant, cavalier rejoinder. I must insist that you cease from this constant praise of My Greatness. It is starting to embarrass me. Yes, I am Great and you aren't, but that does not give you free reign to wallow in unrestrained envy. After all, I am not (yet) a god! I urge you to moderate your enthusiasm for Ed Dolan the Great. It is unseemly to be so worshipful. Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

As I have often reiterated ... what anyoone thinks of me does not define who and what I am. How many time have I said ... your opinion matters not because you matter not??? Sooner or later this will all sink into that thick skull of yours. Regards, Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |
