dumbass,
you don't get it do you ?
i pick on you because of what i detect as insincerity.
you claim to be a fan of women's racing, yet the majority of your
topical posts to rbr contain some sexual undertone or refer to a female
rider's attractiveness.
anyone can read the achives and see that.
Let me clear up what I stated already. First you don't know me at all, but
let me clarify my posts. Like I said before, since no one is interested in
women's cycling, it's pretty much a baiting contest to get people to talk
about women's racing. Since no one would be interested in talking about the
sport in general, quite often I have posted links to photos to spark a
conversion, like a proxy. Sometimes it had the desired effect, after they
made their remarks about the rider, then sometimes that might develop into
something more interesting about that rider, their teams, the race, the
course, and a whole realm of other interesting possibilities, at least to me
anyway, it would of been. Unfortunately most people are not interested in
anything other then making some quick sexist remarks and then they go about
their business. That's not what I had in mind. I don't mind the part about
who are the hot women of cycling. That is all part of it, but rarely if ever
did the threads ever develop any kind of keen or robust conversations about
any of those issues, as least not as far back as I can remember. I can't
remember one single thread that went really into details about their sport,
or the riders, except the one I posted about the who are the sexist women
cyclist. That was fun, but I am afraid, it ended there. If you knew me
personally, you would know I have a keen interest, always have since 1992
when Leontien rode against Longo in the games, which I have on tape, and is
one of the most impressive rides Longo has even done on the bike, just
falling short of catching Watt at the line.
I am not the one that is insincere here. I have to post that way just to get
people interested to talk about anything to do with women's racing. That's
not my fault, it's a lack of interest by the group. It's not insincere for
me to be creative by posting links to women's photos to get them to open up
to talk about the sport, but usually all you hear is, yeah she is hot, and
they move on. So that's where the posts usually end right there, and then I
get the blame for posting by being called a pervert, gay or a stalker.
For the record, I probably have more data, videos and info of various sorts
then most when it comes to their side of the sport. I have archived
thousands of pages about the Giro and TDF since at least 1989 and that's not
easy to do. I know a fair bit about the women's tours and many of the Euro
classics. Furthermore I follow many of the Euro sites, and know where to
look for data, and have all the links bookmarked for the best sites on the
web for the women racers. I should be the last person in the world who
should be accused of being insincere. I could talk you blue in the face
round the clock about women's cycling. I doubt if there is anyone who is a
bigger fan then me, except perhaps William or Phil. The threads are shallow
because they never go anywhere or are ruin by the hucksters. Very cleaver
trap was set for me to talk about the gay games. This is kind of traps I am
talking about. I'm not falling for that and I have no interest to speak
about the Gay games. I am not a fan of that, but I know a lot of women
racers are gay, but I chose to not know who they are and try to ignore it. I
like Judith Arndt a lot, and so far her sexual preference hasn't gotten in
the way of me being a fan, although I have never met her. I did have the
chance to met some of the women in Merced and Fresno this year and watch
them race, but I couldn't attend. I have a nice digital camera too, so some
nice photos possibly, and my take on the race.
It's not me that's insincere, I can't force people at gunpoint to talk about
women's cycling. Everything here is based on interest, but it would be nice
if the RBR destroyers would stop wrecking the threads for next generation.
More then likely there will be another huge fan pop up for women's cycling,
so if you can, be nice to him or her when they come, since it's mostly a
mens racing group.
