  1. I am aware of Two Elks but has anyone ridden Grand Traverse / Cougar
    Mountain trail? I'm looking for a good 20+ miler last week of July.

    From sea level to 12,000 ft? Sounds like a medical miracle to me. Bring
    lots of friends and ride the real comando run.

    I do this every year. I'm out there for work and get a day or two to
    play. I've done the DH stuff, and I don't have an interest in that
    anymore. I can handle the altitude adjustment. I did the Kokopelli one
    day after landing. No breathing problems.

    You should do the comando run then. Remember to prevent H.A.F.E. use Deet.
    Bring a needle for you pericardial tamponade. (sp)

    Yeah, if I got shuttled up the Dewey climb, I'd have no breathing
    problems either. You didn't do the Kokopelli if you didn't ride the
    whole route.

    Yeah, he should. Though I have a feeling that his version of HAFE
    comes in the form of halitosis because of all of the [censored] he talks.

    Onion Creek wasn't a half bad climb for someone from the "flatlands".
    I'll take what I can get. As far as I am concerned, I did it and that
    makes me happy. I don't have to impress anyone else other than myself.
    You should understand that.

    I was going to reply to this, but it just isn't worth my time or effort
    on you, Jerome.

    Onion Creek isn't the Kokopelli Trail. Your flase claim that you rode
    the Kokopelli Trail is just that, false. You may have ridden *on* the
    Kokopelli Trail, but you did not *ride* it because you didn't ride all
    of it. Anyone with half of a brain should be able to understand that.

    Aw, I don't take it to heart. He's done that a lot to other people. I
    actually find it quite amusing. I really would like to ride with him
    one day. He knows some out of the way trails and is a very good rider.
    Might even be able to teach me a few things. From what others have
    told me, this is just his Internet persona.

    So why the facade?

    There was a time when JD would actually email Webtv users asking them
    not to forsake posting even though they were being belittled by some
    regulars for improper nettiquet and posting via Webtv. I was one of those
    who was emailed on several occasions asking me to stay and "join him"
    (he was on webtv at the time). Now he does a complete 180 and it's
    all in the name of having an "internet personna". It's getting as old
    and repetitive as Mike V's ramblings.

    Well nobody is perfect and neither you nor him are on WebTV, so why not
    end the bitterness. I learned long ago that some battles are just not
    winnable, expecially on the Internet. This is a faceless and
    personalityless mode of conversation. Anyone can be whomever they want
    to be and you have no control over it. Why not just go with the flow
    and occassionally learn a thing or two. Just throw out the retoric you
    don't like.

    I am not saying I agree with the way JD acts, but there is nothing you
    can do about so life goes on.

    I apologized to JD before to end this [censored] but it seems he or his
    internet personna will not let it go. I did my part. Must be some
    macho thing.
