Oh. I obviously do usenet for quite different reasons from you.

 

Yes - and the lesson is: when crossposting a reply halfway through a thread,
don't assume that users of the other group are going to be aware of past
postings in a group to which they are not subscribed.

Quite why something this basic should have to be pointed out to you is
another matter.

To meet babes?

 

(yes, we all knew it was a troll).

Ah, nice to see some ridiculous old prejudices given an airing. Note to
self: send letter to Inland Revenue demanding substantial tax refund because
I am evidently too poor to be paying higher rate tax.

Of course - I forgot that you treat usenet as a way of abusing people.

It's not an email, it's a post, newbie

You're not really very well adjusted, are you matey

 

ug. Horrible thing.

How sad.

 

So given your statement that you believe yourself to be on the receiving end
of a troll , why bother replying?

 

I would say that what you need is a much better accountant if you are
paying lots of higher rate tax.

 

Presumably you don't wear leathers or waterproofs on your motorcycle? Or a
helmet? The office biker in my last-but-one firm was known as the Creature
from the Black Lagoon because of how he looked togged up in his Belstaffs.

Don't knock it until you've tried it. There is a phenomenon known as
"triker's grin" which describes the shit-eating grin which you get from the
feeling of riding a recumbent trike at speed.

That's "another way" of abusing people.

Good point, old timer.

You think that statement:

a) provides any enlightenment to anyone else
b) causes any concern to me

'cos I don't think it does.

Anyway, what's wrong? You sound particularly tense today.

 

Amusing yourself and feeling some sort of moral and intellectual
superiority to your peers?

 

I don't wear loud coloured leathers that match my bike and don't see
your point about the helmet.

I also don't understand the point of Lyrca on a push bike, unless it's
just to enhance one's physique..

 

That's pretty much it, yes.

 

What would you suggest instead, then?

 

You are assuming I haven't.

(Correctly, as it turns out...)

I don't like the concept of a recumbent bike/trike. The seating
position seems wrong to me for travelling. I dislike
the idea of the lack of stability with a recument bike (which,
admittedly isn't a problem with a trike; although the additional width
would make sneaking between stationary cars harder. ). On a normal
pushbike, I like the additional visibility that comes from
height to be able to look over cars to see what is about to
happen up the road. That is lost with *all* recument vehicles.

And they look very unlikely to wheelie and stoppie as well.

 

Kobe.

Nice.

 

Naked?
