Nope reread my last post and cannot see in what way I'm taking a pop at roadies.
Further what was stated was originally true, retro mtb was the core of retrobike and if you look at the pages devoted to it even now is still true.
Further expressing awe at one riders ability to out perform the rest of us cannot be viewed as an insult surely.
Plus anyone opinioning on what a DAEC/AEC can express, take a turn being one before expressing whats a bad show or not for us to utter. I get you cats herded, put up with your moaning, ensure we have meets to go to and thus I get to express opinions. If you can do a better job, step forward and be recognised otherwise........ !
Plus I dont give a hoot what you ride.
If anyone else engages in banter on here its OK but if I say anything its all 'his tone is harsh and he's a grumpy auld basa'.
This is normal service, nothing needs resume as this is how it stays.
