Western MA Fred Sighting--Beware

Dumbass,
If you want to take cyclists out, the least you could do is use a pickup.
BillC might even have two for rent when he finishes his argument with the
anti two-gun lobby.

There was a guy riding in E. Longmeadow yesterday set up like this:

Trek carbon fiber bike (was not close enough to see the exact model).
Full US Postal outfit, including Nike shoes and those too high Nike socks.
Bar end rear view mirror.
Spinning at 100+ rpm but going maybe 15 mph on a flat road.

How many points would one get for taking him out with a car? Then again, at
least he was out riding.

Dumbass - stop looking at your reflection in the glass buildings.

You're welcome.

I'll have to give Bill a call. Maybe we can work something out.

Hey, one of them has a real homemade redneck cowcatcher made out of a
piece of 6" Iron pipe for the bumper with a big ass brush gaurd made
out of 2" pipe welded onto it.
That's the one that came from the western Georgia / S. Carolina border
area.
Confuses the hell out of people to see what looks like BillyBobs
Redneck Road Rager covered with stickers like Cycle-Smart, our cycling
club, Various Pagan and Wiccan stuff, along with the hunting and
fishing stickers.
A little too distinctive to be picking Freds off with though. Gotta go
the Soccer Mom, high end SUV route.

And your point being? Other than the fact that you are an idiot. So the
guy had a nice bike and was decked out in a Postal kit. I wonder how
many points one would get for
taking YOU out with a car, for being an idiot?

Dumbass -

Laff gets road rage every time he sees a fan of LANCE. It's merely a
symptom.

thanks,

K. Gringioni.

Yup, that is the same image I have of BL, and of course in his attire off
the bike a "Dopers Suck" T-Shirt.

Too pedestrian. When we want to make a statement, I ride in my Gewis jersey
and my buddy wears his Kelme or Festina jersey. We're thinking of having
semi-custom jerseys made with Davey's parody attached hereto in the spirit
of the departed Bonnie Martin.

You're starting to sound like a redneck, Brian. Be a little less intolerant.

Kasekop,

The US Postal cycling team doesn't exist anymore.
Wearing the kit isn't Fredly, it's retro. Well, ok, it's
Fredly retro. But not that much different from you or
me rolling around in some Bianchi or Peugeot jersey
and thinking we look styling. I'll wait till the USPS
replica wool jersey comes out before I go that far,
though.

I agree with your point to a point. When I ride in my LADA, TI Raleigh,
Mercatone or other jersey, it's only the jersey I'm wearing. If someone was
riding around in a Mercatone Uno jersey with matching shorts and socks,
Vittoria shoes, Bianchi bike with Pirata saddle, a yellow head band, shaved
head and a yellow gotee, I call him a Fred just like our local Postal Fred.

OK, competition time. Who can come up with the most unpleasant and garish
mix of fredly kit? Any advance on this year's Lampre shirt with last
year's Isles Baleares shorts and a pair of Rabobank armwarmers?

Major team strips and national champion shirts only.

On that late-1980s Rossins that had yellow, blue, green and red
panels, with some checkerboards.

I'd put Fred on a mid-1990s dayglow pink Klein.

Anything with the old Molteni jersey - that was just pure ugly.

Yes... that would do nicely with Saunier Duval shorts, Brioche le
Boulanger mitts, T-Mobile armwarmers, nice blue Sidi shoes...
