CycloCross: Dismount/Run vs Jump?

I remember John Howard's first- and IIRC only- post to r.b.r. years back, upon which scorn was heaped with fine generosity. I don't remember that. Was I one of the scorn heapers? If it was after the Derby Cycles decision I sure hope I was. I curse his name every time I have to unscrew the not-so-quick release to clear the fork tips and remove a front wheel. I saw him at the LA Tracks Worlds. It took a lot of restraint not to dump on him right there. Just to make him put his expert witness fee in perspective. Bob Schwartz |

Well, a file also works. And it's cheaper and more controllable. -- tanx, Howard Caught playing safe It's a bored game remove YOUR SHOES to reply, ok? |

We may call each other Dumbass, but it's actually much more civil here than it used to be.
