Weedy Wheels
By Steve Horvath | Published Friday, Feb. 19, 2010

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers arrested an American
teenager on Wednesday, February 17, when he attempted to smuggle
marijuana into the U.S.

At about 3:00 p.m., the 18-year-old male, who is also a resident of
Tijuana, entered the border crossing as a pedestrian with a bike.
According to a report obtained from the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security, the CBP officer inspected the mountain bike and felt
something bulky in the tires. Officers used a narcotic-detector dog
that alerted them to the possibility of contraband.

After the mountain bike underwent x-ray inspection, agents removed the
bike’s tires and found more than two-and-a-half pounds of marijuana
stuffed into the tire tubes. The pot was stated to be worth over
$1300.

CBP officers turned the teen over to U.S. Immigration and Custom
Enforcement (ICE) agents. He is currently being held in the San Diego
County Jail.

You don't know if he is a mountain biker. He certainly wasn't mountain
biking. He did have a mountain bike with him. Beyond that, you have no
indication he was or is a mountain biker. I'm guessing you won't have the
guts or brains to amend it to "Another criminal WITH a mountain bike
jailed". Do you have any feet left after shooting them so many times?

There's no reason to have a mountain bike, unless you are a mountain
biker. They aren't any good for anything else -- too expensive, wrong
tires, too much friction & rolling resistance, etc. You know I'm
right. You just don't want to admit it.

biker. They aren't any good for anything else

Nope. Fat tired bikes have a softer ride than standard
road bikes and are widely preferred as 'city' bikes
for that reason. A fat tired bike with lots of gears
and upright handle bars are frequently called
"mountain bikes" whether they are used for what
is called "mountain biking".

-- too expensive,
Nope. Mountain bikes, or rather fat tired bikes
with lots of gears and upright handle bars are
available in department stores for in the range
of $100.

wrong
tires,

Nope. See above

too much friction & rolling resistance, etc.
Nope. See above again. The ride outweighs
the very small penalty in rolling resistance
(there is no friction difference except
rolling resistance) for broken pavement
riding in cities.

You know I'm
right. You just don't want to admit it.

Nope. You are wrong on all counts and just
don't want to admit it.

You are a lunatic. You make less and less sense every time you post. I'm
beginning to believe that you are a troll with no agenda other than to see
how may responses you can get. You are still quite amusing in a "What the
hell?!?!" kind of way.

You don't know what you are talking about. "Fat" street tires are not
"mountain biking" tires. They aren't knobby. The knobs slow you down
and waste energy. The same goes for the suspension. It also adds to
the cost. Only an idiot would ride a mountain bike on the street. Hey,
that describes mountain bikers perfectly! According to mountain bike
experts (who sell them), mountain bikes that won;'t fall apart when
ridden on a trail start at about $600. A bit much, just to ride around
town....

So you admit to your lunacy. That is a good first step. I did say you are
amusing, and that is why I responded. My post is completely relevant since
it addresses the validity of your clearly false claims. I also note that you
can't stand not having the last word. So what will your next post be? More
ridiculous drivel and attempts at deflection I'm sure.
