Well this is goodbye. I want to thank every one for their friendship and wish you all he best in your personal and cycling lives. This is about me and my inability to let things go with Rish. I've had my disagreements with others on this board and have managed to either happily co-exist (pcad) or make friend (fat boy) but this is different and it's unfair for the rest of you to sit through my issues. I also think Rish needs this place more than I do, although I still don't get why a kid who neither races or rides a bike feels the need to hang out with men twice his age on a bike racing forum.
I've asked WR for a perma-ban so unless something changes around here I doubt that I'll be back.

I don't want you to go. We can work this out for the betterment of everyone. We've been through a lot I know. Things are tough but they can get better if we work together.
We made a promise and I'm sticking to my promise. I love you. I love the kids ... wait ... Where have I heard this before?
Scratch that.
El, give it till the end of the week. See what happens. If it doesn't get better by then I'll request your perma-ban.

Wife called, our dog is throwing up everywhere.
I take back every time I said I wish he was 'not alive' when I was cleaning dog hair off the couch. He's my bud and I hate to see him sick.
He gets up every morning with me. He knows when I'm really down. He's always leaning on me or cuddling up to me.

EDR and RTC are like two fighters circling the ring, throwing jabs, the crowd booing. There should be a way for them to just duke it out. Get it out of their systems. Beat the verbal snot out of each other, then move on. Since that will never happen, stick around EDR. I value your input.

with the recent talk of it I ventured in and it seems so far beyond dumb that I find that the 'it used to be entertaining' comment must be something akin to 'when I was a kid we walked up hill both ways.'

I raised a white flag and called a truce.
Even though I don't ride and race anymore (due to injuries which I have been rehabbing from), I stick around here to learn from people with more life experience than myself. Edr is one of those people.
I sent him a well intentioned pm earlier this AM much to the same effect. I hope he sees it for what it is.
Shovel, is this what you had in mind?
And with that, this is over for me. Full Stop.
