Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Yeesh, dude, lighten up with this whole "touch me and I paste you" line. There is pushing with the intent of hurting you/attacking you, and there is touching with the intent of telling you something. Not every physical contact by another human being is assault+battery.

LOL, you will be sorry if you did this to me. After 8 years of MMA experience, this might be the last day you have ridden. Watch out who you grabbing, he might know how to hospitalize you.
I like to see the idiot that try this on me.

Hey, you mean the Gracie who lost a NHB match? You lost ITG points for that, dont you know? Best edit your post to read Rickson and be done with it.

That's like saying Ali sucked because he eventually lost. Royce was one of the best ever. Period.

And here, in a concise blurb of compelling yet disturbing BF idiocy, we have a clear demonstration of why Cat 4/5 races are so much more dangerous than Master's races.

Hey, we are talking Internet Tough Guy points. You lose ITG points for being associated with any "looser." Reality has nothing to do with it (and I agree with you re Royce when it comes to technique, although he wasnt probably as well rounded a fighter as some of the others; still, not a guy who I'd want to yell at in a pack).
