please leave the blasphemy out of this - If you can't make a point by not mocking someones Belief system then you truly are the week minded one and your side of the debate is already lost.

- grow a set and run a single speed -

This is coming from the guy that lied about what he was able to make cleanly at Alafia, until he was called out on it by Catman.

Isn't lying against one of your commandments?

Never claimed to "clean" alafia - only Gatorback (although not in it's present condition), bridges, north creek, rollercoaster and moonscape (with the exception of the doom entrance).  And catman never called me out...get your facts straight before you start spewing garbage ;)

Cgarolr,

You can certainly say I called you out on the whole "Gatorback & Moonscape are easy" thing. However I wasn't being a jerk about it at all, just wanted you to explain yourself in detail instead of very vague posts. I remember specifically thinking that I wanted to ride with you asap if your boast were indeed fact. My investigation led to you admitting that you were not doing the hard options and that only the main trail was easy for you. The whole thing ended up being a big misunderstanding but provided entertainment for all of us.

Now hurry up and post something for sale so I can "lowball" you :D

Note: I am joking! Sometimes the mood faces don't seem to get the point across. I think I'm just gonna put that as my signature.

That is my biggest gripe with online sarcasm - no one notes the smiley at the end (which connotates a joke/sarcasm).  I don't let anyone on here get my panties in a bunch, as life is too short and it's easy to get carried away online.  I imagine in real life, everyone is cool and wouldn't sometimes say the things they do online.

As for the hard/easy options - when the trails are in good, flowing condition, I can clean all of them previously mentioned with the exception of the bridge around the tree on gatorback and the rock step-up entrance of doom.  I do ALL the hard options everytime.

However, since I have started riding 32:18 and 32:16 singlespeed rigids, the hard options are not as "cleanable" for me.

EDIT: Sorry to deviate, but just responding to the original deviaiton ;)

It is beyond repair...when the wreck happened, it pulled the derailleur out of the hanger/dropout along with about half the threads.
 
I just really wanted it to be a cracked swingarm or something structural to the frame so I could have an awesome excuse for getting something new.

I can jump up and down on the swingarm for you and make sure it's broken.  That way you can justify the upgrade to your better looking half.  ;)
