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.

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.

Old inevitably equates to slower, but not
necessarily slow. *You may be old and slow, but I'm not, so you
needn't refer to "US" as if we were one and the same ... WE ARE
NOT!!!. *You couldn't hold my wheel, Ed. *I trained for years with a
professional 19 years my junior. *I've ridden with national and world
record holders, champions and an Olympian and earned their respect.
Can you say the same? *Granted, most people my age don't ride like I
do and that is specifically why all my riding companions are in the
30's an 40's. *You may be decrepit, but unlike you, I am still
SPEEDY. *You need to get up to speed in more ways than one it would
appear.

Hi JimmyMac.


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.

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!

The point is that I don't care what anyone on Usenet thinks of me and you
do. From that alone stems all your troubles.

I must insist that you cease from this constant praise of My Greatness. It

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.

Oh really now??? Another unsubstantiated opinion??? Actually, I
couldn't care less what you or Gotbent think. 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.
