Default I rode today

I rode a bike w/ gears and springs. The trails were wet,
but frozen. Paladin bailed but I went anyway...at least he
got me off my A**.

That is all...

Yeah!

I road today too. I also got into a fight on the ride because some
people don't understand what it is to be a hypocrite and get mad when
they are called one. I also got into a scuffle with another person who
said, "why are you even on my ride".

A fun day indeed. Did it stop me? Hell no!

It's good to see you are riding. Now if we can get that CDB dude off
the couch...

Yeah, very funny. I even got up early this a.m. to try and keep my
, after having ridden hard all week, hoping to catch even a glimpse of
the elusive, reclusive G-Man. When I got up, I felt hung over and
dizzy, head pounding, couldn't hardly walk a straight line, and hadn't
drank anything last night stronger than good coffee!

Well, G-Man, awesome to hear you're back after it. Tell me all about
it over a barley drink on Monday.

Physically fighting? I hope you were evenly matched.

When you're a guy who is 5'5" and 145#, there are rarely times it's
evenly matched unless it's a female.

The guy was considerably bigger than me (height and weight). I stood my
ground while he was thumping his chest against me. Another guy came and
pulled him away. I'm not afraid to fight and I do have a brown belt
(too lazy to go for black). My general rule is wait for him to pop me,
dial 911, and have him arrested for assault. Especially, when there are
10 witnesses standing there.

The great thing was watching the mtb club "owner" (it's not an
incorporated organization) stand there smiling (he hates me). What a
great leader he is.

The immaturity that abounds around here is unreal. There are egos the
size of Mount Everest. Is it like that in other places? Why do people
need an attitude to ride a friggin bike?

I vaguely remember a dude like that...

I've been 'under the cicumstances' for quite some time and
now I'm trying to get on top of them.

No, not here. I've infiltrated many groups in the last 20 years, from
pro XC and DH racers in the beginning, to mellow just wanna ride groups,
to everything in between, and have never ridden with the type of people
you describe. Either you're seeking them out or there is a huge
difference between the coasts.
