He wouldn't move over and let me pass the ignorant bastard - just coz he didn't have the skill in the twisties.

As you say Lou - people who can't consistently maintain the speed limit on the open road...I was on my bicycle that day - Campagnolo Chorus equipped 531c!

The doors swing both ways people deal with it or sell your bikes and walk.

You should have run him off the road then. Fuggin' motorpsyclists.

Yeah... quotas....

Geez... dickwad and tugger is constructive criticism???? What else was there in that thread that was constructive? Oh... yeah...that was all it was... " you're a dickwad and a tugger." I couldn't see the link between these comments and "constructive criticism" as you call it, thats all.

I don't have problems, the voices in my head tell me all is OK.... most of the time.... except on days ending with the words "...day..." and if I forget to take my meds...
