  1. Hello All,

    Why do I not see any Raleigh road bikes out there. I see many
    Cannondales, Treks, Specialized. I have an opportunity to get a really
    good priceon a Raleigh but a bit skeptical because I don't see any on
    the road. I am looking on the range of the Cannodale R5OO or R600 or
    Trek 1500. Is there a reason they are not out there. Any advice on the
    Raleigh brand would be greatly appreciated.

    Ever hear of the term marketing, you dumbass? Raleigh doesn't do that.
    Trek and Cannondale do. Sounds like you're still stuck back in the
    1970's in a wool jersey and spinning vinyl on your turntable.

    Wake the [censored] up.

    For you to be this hostile to an honest question, even one that you
    thought was not very intelligent, is a sign of serious mental disorder.
    Get some help.

    DEAR MISS MINNESOTA,

    You're just as much of a dumbass as Raleigh boy. Move to a real state,
    ice fisherman.

    sheesh.. thats a bit harsh..

    but buy the Raleigh and get out there and ride it.. I bought a Raliegh Super
    Course late last year .. full 105 bike for under a grand.. Cannondale and
    Trek can't come close to that.

  7. If you pushed me into the cart-return at Walmart, chances are I'm going
    to find a reciept your mom left in a basket that shows she used her
    debit card to buy 2 jars of Vaseline and a bag of cucumbers.

    What else do you want to know?

    Magilla,

    You're new name is "[censored] No. 2" ("[censored] No. 1" is Crit Pro).
    Chill out. You might get sent into the cart-return area at the next
    Wal-Mart crit you do if you keep treating people like that.
