Oh get over your bad self already and stop living in your amazing
history. Here's some advocacy news that's a little more current. Just
two weeks ago, there was a USFS-approved trail work event on the very
trail that you were enjoying. I'm sure that at your level of advocacy
you didn't just show up to help, but were probably spearheading the
efforts weren't you?

So, mtbr allows photos of politically incorrect people on their website
now? I'm surprised they didn't ban Winston for that, the way they are
going on over in that mess.

Hrmmm... It seems that all of Winston's Path Ride photos and videos are
actually a linked in from my private chainedrevolution.com site. Food
for thought there, big guy.

Why don't you take all of those photos of me off of your private web
site? It might make you feel better. In fact, I implore you to remove
them. Your acting as if I owe you for anything is childish at best.

JD

Nobody's inferring anyone owes anybody anything and it's a little sad
you would be that misguided.

Let me dumb it down. The fact that Tani's Path forums are fooriders
forums... and that Winston's videos says fooriders at the end... and
that that they are stored on my private site *probably* could mean that
we're part of the same crowd.

Nevermind the fact that Tani at one point has said that I'm the only
person he'd consider for taking over the shop if I wanted to do such a
thing.

Sorry, but your self-importance is only amusing to me. I don't
frequent Tani's Path forums, I only frequent his shop when I need
bicycle parts. I don't watch Winston's videos either, so I can't see
your horn-toot there either. I'm wondering in amusement how long you
were hovering over this thread, waiting for me to post so you could
start yapping away, claiming how everything was so proprietary.

For the record, I was invited to ride on shop rides first by the
propetier a few years ago when making a purchase there. I inquired if
they still had shop rides after moving here and decided to join them
last Sunday. The only thing I saw in common with all in attendance was
a bicyce, not any group name or mention of a website. Like Pete says,
"It's about the ride."

First off, let me just say that your references to Pete isn't doing

I'll let you figure that out.

you've been doing / leading The Path rides for years now...

It's clearly evident that reading and comprehension aren't really your

point in this thread where I quoted you:

"I don't think I could ever ride with a group that seems to never shut
up and just ride. All of that "woohoo" stuff is quite a joke. It
sure took away from what looks like a fantastic trail in a (normally)
serene setting. Enjoy your crowd, someone has to."

I haven't seen any post about anyone needing permission to attend
anything.

What we all have seen is that you're now enjoying yourself in a video
(and photos) created by part of the same crowd that you're referring
to... and the videos have the exact same types of stops at tech
sections... with people cheering on the riders. Heck, there's even Bee
Gees music.

Crow, it's what's for dinner.

As far as riding with The Path bunch goes, it was a lot of fun and on a

trail selections for their rides.

Yes... and the "cool trail selections" could use some extra hands for
trail maintenance this winter. Los Pinos official brushing is November
19th with additional backcountry trails scheduled through spring. For
those who ride these trails and want to keep them rideable, do the
right thing.

Your psychic skills are lacking. I actually deem you *entertaining* and

You're so coy with the "consider your friends" thing. Let's just stick

are all friends reciprocally. So, it's a fact that you rode with my
friends last Sunday. Or if you prefer, you rode with "my crowd".

Quoted message said:

Where exactly is this "fact" regarding permission to attend? Just a

So you say... but of course it's irrelevant as there's no invitation
necessary to do the Sunday rides. If I ask Tani whether he personally
invited Jerome Daniels to the ride would he say yes?

We always enjoy ourselves on the rides - as evidenced in the multitudes
