A grim reminder why ride a recumbent.

Although I think its a troll, it is an interesting argument.

The best way to shut them up is ask them to put their money where
their
mouth is, and support repealing the UCI restrictions against
recumbents.
If
bents are so slow, why are they an "unfair aerodynamic advantage"?

Rob, next time there is a Crit near you, you should go
and watch. You will see just how fast it is. You will
realize when you witness us diving into the cornors
and sprinting out that a lame bent wouldn't have a
chance in hell in there.

So, Fab, show us a web photo gallery with photos of you racing and
accepting
a medal on a podium. I'm sure an L33T racer like yourself wins a lot of
races, right? So, some of your fans and teammates must be taking photos of
the big winner, the team leader that they all look up to. Where are they?

BTW, 81MPH under human power on level ground is not meaningless. It's
incredible.

Well, he DID get a t-shirt from a UBC criterium this year. He might have
paid for it though and that doesn't guaratee that he actually rode it.

I was sure I had both his addresses in my killfile. Double checking I
found that it was there, but the last name is spelled different. It
used to be Mazzoleni, now it's Mazzolini.

Hey Fab, can't even spell your own name correctly?

You needn't bother replying, this address has been added to the
killfile as well.


Well, I participated in a crit this year on my lowracer. I got a
gold medal too for superstock class. The stock class riders were
pulling the same speeds and lap times at the Arlington Crits as what
the cat 1 riders were doing. The only difference is that the speed
bikers weren't drafting each other too much like what the cat 1 riders
were doing.

If you do a little checking over on rec.bicycles.misc you will see that
Ryan and me have never posted with the same ISP.

Ryan lives 80km from me.

Ryan is only a amateur racer and has never raced on a pro
euro team.

We are two different people!

Get your facts straight!
