Why do you even do this to yourself? You dont really have enough money to just be blowing it on bike parts all the time, somebody always has a ride you want..you're never satisfied. You will never be satisfied. There is always something better, faster, lighter and stronger than YOU will ever own, so why keep torturing yourself?

Think about it. You dont even really like riding that much. Sure, its neat to get out and tool around on a bike, but c'mon...who are we trying to kid here? Are you falling for your own lies? Yeah sure, its a workout, but so is running...why waste all your stupid time, money and worthless life riding a stupid mountain bike? Just quit already. You know your heart really isnt even in it.

And you know what, riding never got you chicks OR made you look cool either. You think that dorky ass helmet ever made somebody say "Sweet! I want to look just like that" No. Of course not. If you're not impressed, and no one else is, why do you keep wasting all your time and money? What's that? Riding is fun? Yeah whatever. You look like you're really having fun with those veins straining out of your neck and your face all bloodshot as you're hoofing it up that bigass hill. It'd be alot easier, more fun and faster on a dirtbike anyway. Just give up. You're not "training" you're putting yourself through hell, for what? Some stupid bragging rights? To look cool in front of people who are obviously also uncool? That's a lofty goal. It simply isnt worth it. Just quit already.

Oh but you got that big trip to moab, huh? Why? Its not going to really even be fun, cause you have to ride that stupid bike the whole time. I dont even see why you waste the cash or the time. What goal do you have here? You are pathetic.

I'm so confused. Why does everyone hate Rob? Do things get deleted too quickly? Have I missed out on the middle-agers acting like 8th graders noon special?

Probably. Don't get banned again and you might see more.

When I was banned I saw all...it was like a horribly traumatic out of body experience.

You know, 18 year olds drinking doesn't fly, but this **** does?
Um, it wasnt ACTUALLY to rob. It wasnt to anybody in particular, except maybe someone who would take it to heart and give up because they really arent into it.

You've motivated me.

I'll be selling all of my bicycles for one of these puppies tomorrow...


Anywho, I retract my previous statement.

As i understand it, since you live in Rochester you are exempt from all the negative aspects of anything concerning cycling. You are indeed lucky.:)

Yes but I am subject to all of the negative aspects of living in Rochester, like the high crime rates, lake ontario, and people who say pop instead of soda. Its a delicate balance:rolleyes:
