Well I've been here working on a Temp assignment for two weeks, and will be here for one more week. I go back home on the 30th. This area of the US does not see many recreational cyclists, and certainly not any recumbents. I have seen some transportational cyclists in two weeks but not many. The car traffic here does not know how to handle a bike on the road, but they are friendly, and always ready to talk at a light. Is anyone close by? I've heard more comments and laughs, guffaws and friendly car beeps, when people see my strange bike, the vision r44 is the bike i brought. No USENET here, as it is blocked that explains the cyclingforum post. A man must do, what a man must do!

Instead of everyone else on this newsgroup going on and on about how [censored] fast they are and how important it is to win races, maybe someone could explain to me why there are not more cyclists in Louisiana and most especially why there are not more recumbent cyclists there. LA has an ideal year around climate for cycling and it is relatively flat there which is ideal for recumbents. God only knows why there are more recumbent cyclists in places like the Upper Midwest which has one of the world's most god awful climates and is not as flat as LA. Maybe some of the big brains on this newsgroup could explain why there are no cyclists in LA instead of jabbering on and on about the things they are constantly jabbering about and boring us all to death with their feats of cycling prowess.

How about keeping your profanity to yourself and off this newsgroup?
I will take this under consideration and give it the utmost thought. Glad to see however that you sit up and take notice of the language if nothing else. Not everyone on this newsgroup is brain dead yet although you would never know it from the posts to be found here.

Since there are no current OT political threads on alt.rec.bicycles.recumbent, Mr. Ed Dolan needs to find another outlet for his venom.
What venom would that be I wonder? I express myself directly and forcefully and I don't have to be off topic to do it either. Some others should try it instead of always beating about the bush in a namby-pamby manner and never getting anywhere.
And by all means, everyone here tell us all about your latest fast ride and how many mph you did. And God help us all if you ever win something called a bicycle race. In any event, Mr. Tom Sherman wants to know all about it. Please give him all the excruciating details of your latest and greatest accomplishments. Preferably do it by email so the rest of us do not have to suffer through it.

So, why don't you stop complaining and do it.......?
You remind me of people who move to a house near an airport and then complain about the noise.
Arne, Tom Sherman would rather be dead than kill file me. We are the best of enemies and have been for at least a year now. He will always want to know what I am saying for no other reason than I am often saying something about him, usually something not at all complimentary. But I do agree with you that those others (like Cletus Lee) who are easily offended by strong thoughts strongly expressed should not read me and if they want to kill file me I say good riddance to them.
This newsgroup has by now matured and everyone here can always look forward to contention when they see a post of mine, unless it is strictly a housekeeping post like the present one. Jeez! You would think everyone here would be used to me by now!
Sigh.... I think you are right. .. Arne, USA (member of the human tribe) .. "Mark Leuck" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:mgwic.20244$IW1.1019823@attbi_s52...

Some people just like complaining, its how they communicate
