That's what happens: most of the people opposed to mountain biking leave and
find some other place to recreate, leaving idiots like you with the IMPRESSION
that everything is okay. Of course, you know it's a lie.

Yet again, Dr. Vandeman, you take a balanced and succinct response and
conclude that the writer must be an "idiot" because his experiences
have led him to conclusions that are different than your own.

You do your cause little good, and make yourself appear quite the fool,
with such responses; which is likely why you seem to incur the wearied
wrath not only of those who _do_ mountain bike but also those who do
not engage in the sport. You termed me "incredibly stupid" and this
gentleman as among a company of "idiots".

Is it any wonder that you have no credibility?

So far you have said NOTHING. At least I gave scientific information about
mountain biking, which you prefer to ignore.
