This is typical of people who have an agenda. Yours is mysterious. You don't ride a full race road bike, by your own statement in that regard. But you refuse to acknowledge that maybe what I wrote was in regard to just that sort of bike, not to aerodynamic improvements in general.

I think you once had me on ignore, and you've certainly characterized me as a "space cadet troll".

Declarative arguments are not the same as actual discussion with the idea of exchanging information. So I guess you win whatever you win here. I hope it's worthy of your time. You get the last at bat, because I'm unlikely to respond. They don't want the refugees to get too uppity in here.

Edit: Oh yeah, the idea that someone who spends more time on the course is "taking full advantage" of his pro race bike will probably be a great defense the next time someone gets cut from a professional team. They can use this thread as a reference.
