Since the discussions I had with you and other SS'ers
some time ago, I have ridden with several people on SS
bikes. I can see how on some trails these bikes could be
an advantage, and on others they would not...Moreover,
its the person riding the bike that will make the
biggest difference, on the vast majority of trails. I
can see you still want blood from me, and with any luck,
you'll have your chance when I visit my friends in Vegas
this fall, and ride Bootleg Canyon as well as
Cottonwood, and other local trails.
Dan, buddy I'm getting to love your presence in this
newsgroup. Really. One question though: Do you find the
hook in your mouth distracting while you type?

Tom, I realize that if JD is going to post "at" me, its
going to be bait. Sooner or later someone here will ride
with me, and it will be pretty clear I'm not a novice.
Novice or not, you have an amazing tendency to spout off
without considering what it is you're saying.
Quoted message said:I wanted to clear that up now, so that later on he
can't claim all his remarks were because he thought I
was a newbie.
Why you seem so intent on proving your credentials to a
bunch of usenet knuckleheads speaks volumes.
Quoted message said:And I will be doing some rides out West this fall....I
don't know that JD will show for any of these like Bootleg
Canyon--it being a pretty long drive for him from what
I've heard. But that's fine, I know people "like" him here---
good at trials type technical, though primarily a trail
rider, but not in to racing.
See above -- you've never ridden with him nor seen him ride.
My advice is to just STFU about your opinion of his riding
skill until then, eh?
Quoted message said:We have guys here that come to a 4 foot high tree which
fell across the trail, and they love to do their wheelies
up onto the log, hop along sideways for a bit, then jump
off the other side. Me, I'd rather carry my bike over the
log--its faster, easier, and "beating" the tree is not a
big perk to me. I'm guessing this must be how JD is, with
riding big boulder patches, etc.
Key word.... guessing. Stop making conclusions based on your
unknowledgable guesses and you won't catch so much [censored].
'Course your posts won't be near as much fun either
Quoted message said:I also don't care too much if a guy who lives at altitude
can beat me up long climbs over 6000 feet high,
considering that I live at sea level.
You have no idea what he can and can't beat you at, since
you have never ridden with him right? Why go down that
road, dumbass?
Quoted message said:In any event, I'll be out riding in enough places
throughout the year, with enough people, so that what I
say here will be backed up by the experiences of
others. JD can carp all he wants--its not going to mean
anything to me.
It obviously is something to you because everytime JD pokes
you in your racerboy wannabe chest you respond with
assertion and bombast, usually about the "expert class"
riders you keep up with. It's just laughable.
.....there, another hook just dangling for ya.
