I Hate Everybody who doesn't ride a Cannondale

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

I Hate Everybody who doesn't ride a Cannondale

The I Hate Everybody thread was going along nice and smooth, and then some moderator thought it was pure 'foo', so it's in the 'foo' area now.

Well, THIS thread has clear road bike content. I now hate everybody who doesn't ride a Cannondale (and just about everybody who does). I think that still covers everything.

I hate MTB's and tandems too. MTB's ride on trails that are too bumpy. Tandems are too crowded.

Are tandems crowding the road bikes or are tandems crowded in general? How do you feel about this?

Well I hate people on bikes that drop me but I also hate people on bikes that can't keep up...and specially if they are on a Cannondale. I heard they sacrifice squirrels by pitching them through wheels with bladed spokes.

But you like me because I ride Cannondales sometimes, correct? Or do you only like me when I'm on a Cannondale. Is it a zen thing is my personality different on a Cannondale the my other bikes? Possibly larger than life like the engorged tubing on a Cannondale bicycle perhaps?

Could be you're reading too much into this. Sometimes, it is as simple as black and white...

it's funny but theres very few bikes i wouldn't consider owning, but a cannondale is one of them. i know they're great, they make an awesome alu frame, etc. but something about the look of them has always turned me so off. heck i'd buy a trek before a cannondale, and thats saying a lot.
