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.
