  1. 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!

    Fondly, Daniel Payne

    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.

    Since there are no current OT political threads on
    alt.rec.bicycles.recumbent, Mr. Ed Dolan needs to find
    another outlet for his venom.

  6. I don't understand why I keep seeing notes like this. It is
    EASY to create a rule so you never see Ed's notes.

    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, USA (member of

    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.

    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.

    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!
